Actually, he's been better for a long time, and things are going really well. The vet ended up gluing his cracked hooves where they needed it, and within about a week you couldn't even see where the cracks had been. It's still kind of a mystery. I'm not sure if we'll ever know what happened. But, he's a happy boy now. After being in a stall for a few days he was so happy to get out and run and buck. He tore around the pasture for a good 5 minutes. Of course, all of us wanted him to take it easy, to make sure his feet really were ok, but he wasn't in a "relaxing" mood. Anyway, his feet were fine, and we all laughed as we watched him sail around his pasture. Right now, I'm riding most days, still jumping and doing dressage, and thinking about next year's plan. It's been so nice, we are still riding outside. I hope it stays like this for a while!
