Oh, you've given him wings... And a magic wand... and fairy dust.

The sad part D-:
All on child abuse...
Hey, she's reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland! I just finished reading that yesterday.

It was.
Outnumbered again.
There's only been one man born with an upside down nose. He drowned when it rained.

Well I went up and got him from the field and thought that he was nodding his head slightly more than normal but it was very slight so as it's friday 13th I thought I was just being silly. I got him ready and he would not walk out of his stable, I just thought he was being naughty so made him come out (peacefully of course). Then we started walking and he took really small unsteady steps but started walking properly when my friend went around the corner so I thought he was just trying it on. Well we get to this one part where we were about to go through a field and I can now feel him very clearly dragging his left front leg so I say to my friend before we go any further can you watch me trot him and see if he's lame (a trot shows it more visibly than a walk). The one way to tell if you can't feel it is by the head, if there is any lameness the head will nod excessively, which it did but it didn't need to, I could tell, my friend could tell and I'm sure the boy and father kicking the ball around could tell too. So I jumped off and with MY THUMB picked his hoof out to check for any stones or glass, all the while getting severe dirty looks off the residents (of course being on the verge of tears I couldn't have cared less if I was getting bloody mud on their precious road). So I walked him all the way home (with me on foot to save him the extra weight). I got back and chucked his rugs him and then felt his legs and feet to check for heat. None. Picked his hoof out again. Nothing. Hosed down his leg to check for cuts and because it's a precaution to infection anyway. Nothing. I did however notice a very small chip in the sole of his foot near to his shoe, so it's either that or he trod on something sharp today and is a bit bruised. Am going to check for any signs of heat or swelling tomorrow morning because that'll signal infection and if that's not there and he's still lame then I'm stumped and am just going to have to give him a few days for it to heal itself.Aw.
What happened Haz?
Will doGive Comet a sugar cube/carrot for me!
