Lame Pony

Although I normally take Monday off with Walker, I went out to the barn yesterday since I missed Saturday and Sunday. I got my boy all tacked up, hopped on, and.... He was lame. :( He had no heat in his leg so who knows what was wrong. I suspect his feet because I thought I could hear a clanging of metal. Today he gets his feet done so I guess I'll give him the day off to recuperate and simply ride him in my lesson Wednesday. I'm sure he will be bouncing off the walls by tomorrow. I imagine I can expect another bad lesson, especially since he was bad last week even when we were alone and I was riding him everyday. Oh the joys of horse ownership!
