Today's update....5 days since he came home...Pics too...

Blistering Winds · 08-08-2007, 06:27 PM

So far so good! He's out with Sage and Black Gelding....(still don't know his name...I just call him Blackie, or a few other not so nice words)

He's gaining, he looks like he feels great. I havent' seen him do much but eat, drink, and get pushy (which that got nipped in the bum really quick)

But the skin underneath the broken dead skin is healing up....which is what the pics are of.

And yep, the hair IS growing back on the damaged area!!! AND the right COLOR!

So far, from what I've seen....that HAS grown back....

Pics are at a bad angle....but you can see the difference .....

AND we are still sound as can be at the trot.....trots freely too. **continues to cross finger that rotation is minimal**

Glad things are still looking up... He sure is one tough nut.

freedom32 · 08-08-2007, 06:38 PM

Nothing but good news, awesome! I think its time to change his name tho, he's had nothing but blisters and boo boos for too long, poor fella. How about Healthy? LOL

I wonder what those people who thought you should've put him to sleep have to say now.

canadianlover · 08-08-2007, 06:40 PM

ohh so good to hear that blister is home and feeling good, you must be so relieved!

Wow Michelle! Those don't even look like the same legs we saw photos of a few short weeks ago! And it's great that hair is growing back too. Blister has come SO far ... I pray he's headed for a full recovery now!
