OK, i wanted to pony my 3yo off of Gabe today so, I caught both of them and started to brush Gabe down to saddle. He kept picking up his left hind leg and shaking it at me. I went to the right hand side, still brushing and looked down only to find that he is all cut up. Yeah.....F Great!!! Well, I went ahead and saddled the 3yo with the intentions on riding out into the pasture to figure out what got him so bad. I decided to put the mares up so that they dont come near Hick (3yo) cause he is the underdog in the pasture. I walked out into the barn and found where Gabe had "cast" himself under the trough in the barn......
He had 10 acres of pasture and he wanted to roll in the barn 
Well, I went ahead and Rode Hick who was awesome today! Then, i doctored poor Gabe the Wussy. Hardtimes called me after I sent her a picture and said that I needed to make him move because he is such a wussy and I need to get circulation in that hock. If I wait, he will be gimping Bad Wednesday....So, I worked him around and low and behold, he was sound after the first 3 minutes of complaining.
Maybe I do make him a wussy!!!
