I am Precious and my horse's name is Pretty Boy. Those are our barn names. That is what we get called on an everyday basis. I am a Paint horse and my paper name is Skippers Precious. My Pretty Boy is a Red Roan Appaloosa horse who's paper name is Trouper. Anywho........I tell the house mouse about our life and what happens out here on the farm and in my big red barn so she can tell you. Well now you know so on with the stories.................

Medical update on the Pretty Boy

Just wanted to let everyone know that the Pretty Boy is doing GREAT! We have just about gotten all the infection out of his leg!!!!!!!!! Today he stood in his bucket of epsom salts for a very very long time just out there in his pasture. He was not alone the whole time. I was there and the human girl too for a very long time. Then she took the lead rope off of him and told him he could go if he wanted to anytime. I went on and started grazing. He just kept standing there. The human man came home with some cattle panels to reinforce the fence I have been working on taking down and still my Pretty Boy just stood there with that one foot in the bucket of water. They had just about finished putting up two panels when he decided he was done standing in the water. The house mouse went into my part of the barn to look at his foot while he was having his supper later and said that she is very happy for him not be all swelled up anymore.

We are all very grateful to everyone who kept him in their thoughts as he fought this infection. Thank You for your love. -Precious-
