I måndags skulle jag då äntligen rida – Pepper harsett fin ut under tömkörning i två veckor så jag räknade med att han skulle bli glad åt att komma igång igen. Som förberedelse longerade jag honom några varv och jovisst, hästen ser inte helt ut som han ska. Antagligen har han blivit dålig av att inte gå med täcke de senaste två dagarna… Min slutsats blir att jag nu mer har två primadonna hästar: Calinka och Pepper. De behöver tydligen täcken och om Pepper följer Calinkas exempel, kiropraktor och massor med andra specialsaker och behandlingar. Tala inte om möjligheterna för honom!
Even with some manipulation to the photo it is hard to find Pepper… |
Tisdagen blev en uteritt med Percy – jag smilade mest hela tiden. Hon är så rolig och härlig. Själv, i mörkert och med pannlampa, trots det tyckte hon det var kul. Sjuklingarna såg (tack och lov) lite bättre ut.
Onsdagen blev en promenad med Pepper och Mika samt en koll på förberedelserna till julmarknaden – det är så vackert med alla lampor.
Calinka seemed to be a little bit better, but I let her stay in her small pasture, hopefully I soon can let her out with the others. Bunny on the other hand looked worse, the wound seems to be more severe than I thought and had some fluid and a lot of swelling.
Tuesday I finally got to bring Percy out for a trail ride – I smiled all the time. She is so much fun. She wasn’t bother that she was alone in the darkness with just my lamp to guide us. The injured horses (luckily) seemed to be even better.
Wednesday turned out to be a walk with Pepper and Mika and a possibility to look at the preparation for the Christmas market that is going to be hosted thru Thursday to Sunday at the castle. All the lights are so beautiful.
Luckily Percy seems to be ok now and I long reined her to confirm that, and she worked fine. I also showed her the puddle of water and let her play. She really liked that! Mimmi brought Pepper for a walk.

All horses in one pic – do you find all of them? |
Så idag fick Isac följa med upp till hästarna. Vi ankom stallet någon timme efter att vi ätit lunch och redan då började tjat om att få fika. Som ledde till en mindre katastrof när den elaka modern nekade. Det kan ha varit anledningen till att Pepper såg monster i änden på ridbanan när jag tömkörde honom. I alla fall såg han fin ut, men lite svår att manövrera pga spöken – han har bara varit så här en gång tidigare – när jag hade radion på i mörkret.
Calinka var nästa häst på tur och det blev en kort tur – hon visade sig vara rejält svullen i vänster framben. Jag vet inte vad hon har gjort, men det kommer dröja innan hon går för fullt igen. Isac fick hon bära ett varv runt husen för att jag skulle komma ut på lite bättre mark och se hur hon rörde sig och om rörelse hade någon effekt på svullnaden.
Isac joined me today, we arrived at the stable about an hour after lunch and then the talk about food started. That got into a small catastrophe when the mean mother refused. It might also have been the reason why Pepper saw monsters at the end of the arena when I long reined him. He looked good, but was harder than usual to manage because of the monsters – he has only been like this once before – when I turned on the radio in the darkness.
Calinka was next horse up, but turned out to have a big swelling on her left front. I don’t know what she has done, but it is going to take some time before she is doing full work again. Still, I got her to carry Isac around a short distance so I could watch her walking in a better area than the muddy pasture, and if moving would do anything for the swelling.
