You must be worried sick! I would be too if it were happening to Cooper!! What does the vet say, did you ask them? Will he be ok, are all the horses going to be ok, sure hope so.
Hope you can enjoy your weekend, I know it will be hard for you thinking about Cash. One of the women from that Parelli group I just met is there now too. Her name is Heather and she owns a Fjord named Henry. Maybe you will meet someone who has a Fjord named Henry from Moffat, Ontario (Campbellville).
Talk to you when you get back.

Hi! Thanks for the compliment. Cash is registered as a bay GH & a Buckskin. He's getting all that red from the buckskin I think. He has slobbers so bad I could just cry when I'm with him and it gushes out. The first few days weren't too bad but after a week or so of it worsening I'm just feeling a bit sick. If the stable owner doesn't do something soon, I think I'm going to have to buy an eatting mussel and I hate that idea. I honestly don't know what I'd do if it was my stable. I am hearing lots more barns have it this year then normal but we've had it for three years in a row. I am going away for the week-end to the Parelli event in Columbus Ohio and I'm not real comfortable not being around to keep a closer look after him. I do think I might be worrying too much but he is looseing a lot of water. I don't want to put a muzzle on him and then leave. One of the horses pulled hers 1/2 off on the second day she wore it and got the mask part stuck in her mouth. Who knows how long she'd been like that...it was about five o'clock when someone noticed. She could have been like that since 8:30 when she got put out. I don't know if she was gagging on it while it was stuck or not.
