RIP - Sally

Yesterday Sally coliced and had to be put down. I am very upset as she was one of the first horses I loped a full drill on. Such a sweet horse any Tenderfoot would feel comfortable. She will be greatly missed.

    Turbo coliced while I was riding him. Yeah. I rode him and groomed him for J2. Mom says he'll be okay. He rolled while I was grooming him, while I was on him, was SUPER sensitive while I was grooming, and bit the wrangler who tightened his cinch on the butt... HARD. Poor baby.

      I saw that!!!! I was right there when that happened. Glad to hear he will be all right. The changing seasons always cause colic in quite a few horses

      The weather changes their digestion a little bit. Cold makes you constrict. So sometimes it can cause colic
