For those who might be wondering, Rachel & Stormy left the show on Thursday (20th) after doing the 1.30M class. The class went beautifully with one rail down but after some "chill time" in his stall, Stormy seemed a little bit off. He's a precious commodity and not wanting to take any chances we packed him up, took him home and paid a visit to our vet - Dr. Larry Butler at OVLAC.
A knee strain was diagnosed which requires nothing special except for some R&R for a couple of weeks. We were greatly relieved because we were thinking of all the possibilities that could be wrong.
So, now the question is, how to entertain an athlete who is suppose to take it easy for 2 weeks? Nothing more than hand walking for exercise allowed ....... I'm sure this will be good fodder for the blog, stay tuned!
I don't suppose Stormy could use one of those treat cubes that we give our dogs to keep them quietly occupied?? :) Hey, maybe I'm on to something there .... (big grin)
