7 Months Post Injury Navi

Now (Nov 2015)

It has been a long 7 months of recovery time for Navi. I haven't ever dealt with a cut of this caliber. From the outside it looks to be healing up great! But it seems that once we start to get back to work training that it swells up. We are going to keep doing ground work and hand walking and give her more time.

The day it happened

Regardless of what happens I think I need to mentally prepare myself for the idea that this injury may have ended our chance of riding. I won't ride her if it will cause her pain, and she may just become my agility horse. Only time will tell, but for now we will spend this winter doing fun ground games and we will revisit the possibility of riding next spring.
