Today Bill and I went out to see how Jimmy is doing outside. I couldn't believe what we saw. Bill took lots of pix of JC and I, and I took pix of JC when I put him out in the round pen. I wanted to see how he was moving so I threw him out there for a moment just to watch him move. MAN did he feel GOOOD!!!! And my jaw dropped when I watched him move. He's sounder now than he's ever been in his life. He took my breath away. It was stunning. Here are some photos from the day. Enjoy!
The back of his stall opens up to the pen he goes into all day, which he loves. He can go in and out all day.
Then I put him into the round pen, to see him move...and saw this:
HOLY SMOKES AM I A LUCKY GIRL OR WHAT?!??!??!???
Like a good boy, when I signaled by bending over that it was time to stop running around like a lunatic, he came right to me and posed for his picture to be taken :-)
Bill took a final photo of JC and I when we put him back in his dry lot before we said goodbye.
I am so so SOOOOOO unbelievably happy!!!!!!!! He's happy and healthy and SOUND!!! No swelling or heat in either ankle whatsoever. He looks incredible. I called Helen (Barn Owner) and told her to just leave him out all the time now. He's doing great and the fresh air is good for him! There's not enough space in the dry lot for him to go wild, just enough for him to move around. I am so thrilled.

Wow look at the stretch in that trot! You'd never guess he was ever unsound!
I know! I can't believe it! That's how he USED to hack. I cannot wait to get back to it. OH MAN I can't wait.
