Yes, I could almost hear DJ thinking that as I walked across his field this morning.  He is a great one for not working, as you all know, so to have me turn up at a weekend - not a good start!

He walked in nicely though and I started grooming him, while waiting for Toni to arrive ... and so we could assess how he was.

He walked OK - but, was hopping lame in trot.  So, she bandaged his front legs.  I have bandages, that he has used once before, when he travelled, but they are good ones, so can be used to support the legs as well as protect him.

I trotted him up and still as lame.

So, Toni suggested he stand in his box for a time, to see if the bandages would take the pressure off his legs and he would be OK ... and gave us time for coffee!! (Acyually I ended up helping her move some furniture around!)

Anyway 3/4 hour later we went back ... and he was better, but still lame.  So she had a think and decided it would be best if he stayed bandaged for the rest of the weekend.  He is a bit of a twit, and havinig new horses in the next field means he is not resting!

So, I fed him a carrot and walked him back to his field ... so he could show off how well his royal blue legs worked!!

Poor DJ. New horses to show off for and he isn't in his normal perfect mode. How stressed that must make him. He is a vain pretty boy I bet. Hope he heals quickly.

Sounds as if he's some better- that's a good start.

Happy Saturday.
