Hi everyone,
Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I just got back from camp. Jester has improved a lot ever since i started using the Today every time I'm out there. i bought it a few weeks ago and it has done wonders for his hooves! His back hooves are perfect and his front hooves are almost there. He got a trim from Jan two weeks ago. I will try to get Marion out there soon to check up on him. As his hooves are almost 100% percent again, another problem has arose. Jester battles rain rot every year in the summer time, but this year it is so much worse. I bathed him in an anti-fungal shampoo a couple times a week and put an anti-fungal spray on him too. It just kept coming back and covered his entire back and backside. While I was gone at camp, Mrs. Cheryl bathed him in an anti-fungal shampoo with a main ingredient of Captan (a rose fungicide). When I got to see him this week, I was surprised that it was almost completely gone and his hair had grown back. So I have a few more weapons to fight it, so we will see how that goes. We think it might be because of a weak immune system. I will be out today to hopefully soak his two front hooves in Cleantrax.
