Dakota has somehow injured himself, Tuesday night he was limping and we decided to give him a few days and see if it passed. Well Thursday it was worst so we called the vet and he came right out...as fast as "right out" vets come.
He did a few different tests and it seems that Dakota has some sort of soft tissue injury in his heel or tissues leading to his front left heel. One week of stall & small pasture rest, bute am/pm & warm epsom salt soaks am/pm. After a week if he is still not improved the vet will come back out and re-test and if necessary x-ray.
Having Dakota stick his foot into a bucket of warm water is no small feat. He is big and not to crazy about water in general. Thursday night was a disaster, this morning was so so and tonight he was almost perfect.

Dreams will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere. They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.
