Monday, May 14, 2018 – Runaround and Vet Day

Got up bright and early this morning in order to make a 9:00 veterinarian appointment down in Morrison, about 20 miles away. I wanted my vet to give Flash a soundness test, just to make sure he is a healthy as he seems. I’m not used to a gaited horse, so I can’t tell from the feel of his steps about any lameness. He seems fine to me, but better to be sure. We also brought Apollo along, as he is in need of a new Coggins, and I figure I can get a 6-month passport for both of them. Not sure we’ll be doing any traveling out of state, but better safe than sorry. Flash didn’t hesitate getting into the trailer at all, nor did Apollo following suit, which made me very happy! Flash passed his soundness test with flying colors, thank goodness! Then we drove up to Murfreesboro for Hubby’s acupuncture appointment, and back to McMinnville because they’re the only Tractor Supply that stocks Nutrena Empower Balancer for me. A final stop at Walmart before heading home. We started a dialysis session but ran into problems about halfway through and had to stop because of a slight clot in one of his lines. Hopefully, we’ll be able to get a full session in tomorrow. It delayed dinner and getting settled in for the evening, but eventually, we were able to wind down.
