With the help of Schwung & Supaloma Greta was rescued this past May. She was sick, very thin and had no sparkle in her eyes. She looked as though she had lost her best friend Look at her now.......... ;D

Here's her "don't touch my back feet" look. Any suggestions? She was doing great, now she doesn't want me near her behind. She is moving sound and looks fine. (Geri: she still has one long hoof; can't get near it to file & boy was it cold out there today!)

Greta had her first big vet appointment today with Dr. Evergreen. I was nervous all week, because I didn't know what to expect or how she would behave. For the most part it was uneventful, although very interesting for me; I got to feel the difference in her teeth before and after the float. She did rear in the stall and bump her mouth (prior to the sedative )just some minor cuts. Greta is 6-7 years old and overall healthy, she has some scar tissue in her back left leg from an old injury but it doesn't seem to bother her. Dr. H was awesome and now she has perfect teeth for chomping all those Christmas treats. Geri also came and trimmed her feet for the full spa day. Here she is after her treatments.....soooo sleeeepy She was palpated and no foal was detected....whew! (just chubby)

; Greta is 6-7 years old and overall healthy, she has some scar tissue in her back left leg from an old injury but it doesn't seem to bother her. Maybe that explains her reluctance to have her hind end touched. Glad to hear everything - except for the bump - went well.

Despite the rainrot and mud we have had a good winter. We are both looking forward to the sunny days of spring. Her mane finally grew in, maybe I should have named her Marilyn. Here's her new friends; Tina and Jake.
