Hi all,
We went to the rescue on Thursday and Jester is doing well.I got him out and groomed him in the aisle since the wash racks were taken.He obviously had been used for finger painting again since there was left over paint on him.But I used cowboy magic green spot remover and they all disappeared,so now he's white again.He has some thrush in his hooves.I will try to put some thrush medicine on it.But he had found the salt block again,so he licked that for a while.On Sat. I will post again and tell you what is going on.I will try to take him exploring around the farm(He loves to explore!)

Hi all,
Friday Jester got his teeth floated(trimmed by the dentist).Their was a field trip out there.Then we went yesterday,Saturday,and all of Jester's cuts have healed up really nice.I gave him mints and apples and filled up his door feeder with grass again.I got him out and groomed him too.He loved it!He also found the salt block and that kept him busy for awhile.
Jester says hi!

Hi all,
We went to the rescue on Saturday.And I saw Jester.They have now changed the schedule from the horses staying out in the day and coming in during the night to coming in in the day and going out at night.Jester was a bit sore.I groomed him and gave him a bath since he was used for the party.They use him for hand painting,in other words they paint him.Then he got to go out and graze for a while.I gave him his treats and filled up his door feeder with grass.All is well.
Thanks for reading!

Yesterday I went to the rescue and helped muck out the stalls,water and other things.The grass is coming in so the horses are happy.Especially Jester.I always try to graze him when I get him out,but I haven't been doing it the past few times.so I got him out and groomed him.His bite marks are almost healed.He and his pasture buddies are always playing!His dapples are coming in and he's looking better than ever.After I finished grooming him I rode him bareback with my sister and a friend in the big pasture(Where the majority of horses get turned out)All of the horses were interested in us,but we soon got away from them.
Jester was thoroughly enjoying himself.He would take a few bites here and there.He wanted to go faster,but I needed to keep him at a walk.I was very happy that he wanted to go faster and that he wasn't sore.He has been very sore lately and I was elated that he was feeling good enough to go faster.my Mom took him back because my sister was having trouble on the horse she was riding,Buddy,and I needed to help her.But when I got back I gave him another grooming and an apple and mints.I helped with evening feed and fed Jester his grain.Then we loaded up the hay,but we had to leave.We will be out there tomorrow and I will tell you what's going on again.
