Sweet Warrior
Last Wednesday, when the vet came out to help Chloe transition to Rainbow Bridge, we had him examine Warrior, our twenty-five-year-old Falabella mini. I was concerned because Warrior hadn’t been feeling well. Although his vitals were normal, there was a bit of crackling in his lungs which may have been due to his allergies which oftentimes, worsen this time of year. Bloodwork was performed and he was started on antibiotics while his supplements were modified. We also scheduled Dr. Bess, our Equine Dentist, to come out on Friday. Her dental examination revealed that Warrior did have a few sharp teeth which were immediately addressed and our ‘Little Man’ is now, thankfully, a bit more perky and is eating more.
On Friday, Dr. Mangan also came out to check Warrior’s eyes. Warrior appreciated it very much and gave Dr. Mangan a special ‘thank you’ which you can see in the video.
Warrior had been staying around the barn with Frodo and Bouie for a few days so I could keep a closer eye on him, but since he was now feeling better, we let him go back to his paddock where he continues to do well.
Sincerely,
Theresa
