Dont know if this is in the right area but...Luka has got the all clear to come back into work after being diagonosed with Lami. Caught it early so she only had a weeks total box rest, then an hour a day out, this week she can do two hours a day, and then it can continue going up by an hour a week.
Been told theres no reason she cant start doing light work in the school - obviously going to do ground work with her and lunging etc first, but I just know she is going to be full of it with only a few hours out! Anyone else have this problem? And apart from trying to get the steam out of them by lunging etc what else do you do? Considering not riding her till she can go out for a good 6-8 hours but that wont be till end of July beginning of Aug and she has already had 6 months off...what to do what to do!
Some pics too, this is Luka yesterday...dont think she looks too bad for a horse on box rest and hasnt been worked for a good 6 months!
