Good News

We are all delighted that Malapropism recovered from his operation and he came back to us at the weekend! he has lost a fair amount of condition which is hardly surprising but is otherwise on quite good form. I have to thank our vets Mcgonnell and Gillatt for their amazing diagnostic skills and care and also Jessica at Valley Equine in Lambourn, without their help Mally would not be with us today. He has to undertake a month's box rest with walking in hand two or three times a day and after that he should be good enough to go out in the field. He is already showing a bit of a cheeky side, he is fed up that he can't be fed hard feed yet and is a bit disgruntled about having to eat soaked grass pellets but almost turns himself inside out if he sees a packet of polos!
We are thrilled to bits to have him back in one piece - the sleepless nights and nursing were worth it.
