Someday, Pookey's right front hoof is going to look like this again.And when it does, I am going to do a casting of it, and fill it with molten bronze, and erect a hoof statue in front of the barn. There it will stand, as a reminder to me that hard work eventually pays off, right? And that things don't happen overnight, and that anything worth having is worth working for, and so on and so forth (feel free to fill in the platitude of your choice...)
Until that time, I am once again soaking, soaking, soaking, and massaging, and wrapping, and doping, and so on and so forth...
Pookey, thank goodness, is maintaining his cheerful attitude. His lameness today on our brief two-minute walk started out at a four on a five scale, but he picked up a lot of steam toward the end of his walk and improved to a three out of five.
We will see what tomorrow brings!
