Well, its been an interesting couple of days. Last night when I went out to the barn to feed the horses, I was later than usual around 10:30 instead of my 8:30 or 9 feed time. When I got there I couldnt see one of the minis boarding here. I looked in his stall and my heart went up to my throat, I thot he was dead, but he was just stuck up against the wall. He must have rolled over and got his legs stuck up on the door and his front legs in under his feeder. Got him out and up and walked him up and down the aisle for about 10 trips . He seemed fine and started to eat and went pee and poop so i figured his organs were working okay. I called his owners this morning and let them know what happened.
Tonight the 4 of us went to see Marley and Me, --tear jerker!!!! I could hear a lot of sniffling from other people. We came home and went to barn to feed horses and Ginger was laying flat out in her stall which is very rare! I walked in and she didnt even get up, I finally got her up and she did a few circles and laid back down again. Signs of colic were showing!!! She was looking at her belly and kicking at it a little bit. When I went to put her halter on she didnt even want to get up. Finally got her up and started walking her outside for about 10 minutes stopped and she tried to lay down again. Got her walking again and called the vet, I must have done about 5 trips up and down the driveway by the time I was done she seemed better. The vet showed up and did a physical check on her, her heart rate was good and she had good gut sounds which she didnt have when i first found her. So right now she seems okay, hopefully it will stay that way. With the change of weather going from snowstorms to 50 degree days I'm sure it messes them up. Okay, time for some sleep, we are all going out to breakfast in morning.
