HOW RED THE NED SHOULD BE FED
I was running early (... for a change!) this morning, so had the time to elaborate on the desired diet for 26yo gelding, Red, who has already lost quite a few molars to age.
In the absence of his wife Lea, who loves Red heaps, the very congenial Mick (Daniher) was keen to video proceedings, in which case I had to overcome my chronic shyness to front the camera.
Please note that the audible wind was nature generated ..... and not P. Lane generated. 😒
A RELAXING DAY AT THE ORIFICE
My recently appointed “apprentice” dentist, 15yo Tyler May, sure has a relaxing effect on his future patients.
This afternoon, he weaved his magic on two very wilful and potentially combative horses, turning their mindset around within a matter of minutes with some methodical pre-treatment massage and reassurance techniques.
The horse seen here, Rosco, was a reasonably relaxed dude to start with, but I reckon he was snoring soon after Tyler’s introduction of the first dental rasp.
