Stryker's Status


Stryker's Status

Scottie-the one who started it all.Good news!  The vet visited Stryker on Tuesday.  She actually had us walk him from the stall to the truck. (We hadn't done that yet.)  The ultrasound shows that the fibrous tissues have reconnected.  Yippee!  They are weak, so it's not over yet, but they're already there and that is great.  He's 2-3 months ahead of where we thought he'd be in the healing process. 

I am putting a door on the open run in area and will be moving Stryker into that space over spring break.  He is quite eager to get out.  Last weekend when the temps went into the mid 70s I found Stryker pointing to the field with his nose.  You think he was trying to tell me something?

He has been taking an herbal mix of marigold & cleavers which is supposed to help his circulation and lymphatic system.  It is recommended for horses on stall rest.  I've also been giving him Reiki on a regular basis.  Whatever it is, it is working for him and we are all very happy about that.
