Update on Cannonball:
I started really working him on the lunge line. I worked him over poles then added in a sursingle. He is really building muscle and coming into himself. He doesn't take very many "goosy" steps and he knows where his back legs are now.
Yesterday Osten put his first ride on him. He took it all like a trooper and did great.
He has a ways to go, but has made leaps and bounds in the past couple months.
I just restarted the Bemer treatment on his 5 times a week.
Stay tuned for another update on this special boy!

🔷️it's update time for Rued Boy "Cannonball"🔷️
✴️ Dr. Brian came and evaluated him and his diagnosis was neurological like we thought. He is on Protazil twice a week for 4 weeks.
✴️He is stalled at night and turned out during the day.
✴️Monday I will start lunging him and eventually add ground poles and a sursingle.
✴️ He gets the Bemer Blanket on 5 times a week.
✴️Just finished a Safeguard power-pac.
✴️His hair coat has a shine to it and is a lot softer to touch.
✴️He is losing his potbelly.
Stay tuned for update #3.

We are going to do something a little different. We bought Rued Boy, "Cannonball", a 2022 AQHA Gelding (Spooks Gotta Spark X Groovin Rue)on October 2nd. He came with some unknown issues. The previous owners did their best and went down many avenues to figure it out , but came to a dead end. In this post, I will introduce him and give you his background. I will make weekly post about his progress and any updates.
✴️Background Info✴️
Was at a trainer as a long yearling being fitted.
**Jan 2024- Failed a PPE, vet determined Wobblers recommended euthanasia. Owners wanted a second opinion so they brought him home.
**Feb 2024- got a 2nd opinion. Undetermined diagnosis. They did a round of EPM meds. They also did high dose of Vitamin E for 90 days. His neck and poll were X-rayed and no defects were found.
**April 2024- was gave 5 way and rabies vaccinations.
**May 2024- He was gelded and had wolf teeth removed. He was then turned out to pasture.
🟢Stats as of Oct 24🟢
Height: 13.1
Body condition: score 3
Hair coat : short, fuzzy, sun bleached
He is getting a custom feed mix: 14% protein/12%fat
Alfalfa hay: free choice
Stalled with daily turn out
Bemer blanket and cuffs daily
🔺️Concerns- Sometimes is stompy looking at a trot and lope with back legs.

Lucky Lil Trick (Niall) made his show appearance at the Heartland Buckskin Horse Association . Braden showed him in All-Breed Stallion Halter. They placed 1st under 3 judges and 2nd under 1 judge. He took everything in stride and was very well behaved. Christopher interrupted Niall's nap time and had to put his show halter on while he was still laying down. This boy is definitely going to be a special one!!

8 panel clean plus his pedigree and great disposition. On point still as a Stallion prospect.

We recently made the decision to geld Boomin At Nite “Boomer” and start the search for our next prospect. Boomer has been very talented and throws gorgeous babies but with carrying the one copy of MY we felt this was the best decision. We plan to keep him at this time as our using gelding and look forward to seeing the 2025 babies out of him.

We are back home and have recuperated from the IBHA World Show. Placings didn't go exactly as planned, but the laughing, cheering and memories made were definitely worth it.
Trailer Park Tina : top 10 in Amateur Mares 2 and under, Top 10 in Yearling Mare Halter. DQ'd in In-Hand Trail because of a pilot error.
Boomin At Nite: top 10 in Ranch Trail.
Until next year.....
