Today was the day for bleeding gums and drool out at the barn as several horses had to have their teeth floated. John Zachary is our equine dentist and does a nice job. He had to smooth down some rough edges in "Kramer's" mouth, but all in all he said his teeth were in good shape. I forgot to take a pic of John working on K-face so I got him to pose afterwards:
Looks like Kramer still loves him!
Took a couple of shots after I clipped K's ears and pulled some of his mane. I must say that it would be MY horse that isn't affected enough to be sleepy from the "Ace" while I did the afore mentioned work on him! Noooooo, he shook his neck and head and backed up and stepped forward the whole time I pulled his mane. When clipping his ears I had to add the twitch and hold it tight with one hand while clipping with the other. Chee....
He didn't suffer too much trauma, but I was worn out. So then I got ready to ride after a quick lunge. He did very well and I rode for about 25 mins. I wasn't sure how drugged he still may have been and didn't want to pull any muscles...
As you can see, I used the snaffle bit since I'm pretty sure his mouth may have been a bit sensitive still.
To a different topic: Meet Stella:
She's so sweet and happy! Here's Stella's hole she just dug:
Isn't it nice? Here's where all the dirt went from the hole that Stella dug:
