Shiners still in quarantine and getting over strangles, which isn’t all too surprising considering he came from an auction house. All symptoms are gone, but he will stay in quarantine until he has gone 30 days symptom free. He spent the day at the vet for a physical and coggins. He loaded up after the smallest amount of hesitation. Unloaded at the vet like a champ and walked right back on to head home. Vet established that he’s 4 years old and in good health other than the strangles. Coggins came back negative and he’ll head back in 2 weeks for his shots and to be dewormed.
He tries very hard but he’s a bit cautious of humans and doesn’t have much a handle on him. So now that the symptoms are gone and he’s feeling a whole lot better we can concentrate on getting him up in weight, handled and hopefully eventually broke!
