Picturemost pictures looked like this....
I have had a hard time keeping up on the blog, but also there has not been much going on.  Rocky continued to be hand walked daily, took his medicine, had his temps taken, stall cleaned etc.  He is such a good patient.  The only times that were not super fun is when it was blowing snow, you know the kind that hits you in the face and stings.  I also have not gotten too many good photos, days mostly consisted of walking in the AM, in the dark, going to work, and walking him in the PM, yep, you guessed it, in the dark....

I am happy to report that he is almost fully integrated again! We started out by spending a few hours turned out with Daisy, then the next day a few more and so on.  I kept a close eye on him in the beginning, even rushing out when Daisy started clacking at him, in fear he might mount her. After that I started stalling her and letting him have the run of the pasture, which if you look at the photo below, she hated. But we're up to full days turned out with Daisy, and nights in the stall. Mostly because we have had quite a few loose dogs in the last few months and I don't want anyone chasing him, especially with how slippery it is (ice). He's doing great!

see, look how mad she is.....

when you're the bestest boy.....you get to eat straight from the hay pile.

We are waiting for this booty hair to grow back still.....but look how thick it is! (epidural site for surgery #1)

Daisy on trim day, looking so pretty, we skipped Rocky's just so he didn't have to hike his leg up and stress his incision. His hooves are in great condition and my farrier was not worried at all about skipping a trim.

He found a stick to carry, he held onto it on the whole walk!! Yes, he is wearing Daisy's halter.

Re-integrating, eating hay on what is accessible on the track. And a couple of frozen poos..
