Little Trucker seems to be feeling better, he was walking better today and is eating and drinking normally. We will bring him into the vet clinic sometime this week for some x-rays and an evaluation. We are hoping that he will be able to find a good quality of life- we want this little guy to know kindness and comfort in his short life. He has had a hard life up to now and we owe it to him to show him the other side of life. It is possible that he may have to eventually be euthanised- but time, and Trucker, will tell us that. As long as he is fighting, interested, eating and exploring his new surroundings- then we will continue as well. His young age is on his side- with correct care some of his leg issues may clear up. For now, we are keeping him comfortable, giving him good quality feed and fresh water and giving him lots of care, attention and love...
He is eating well...
Thank you to visitor Sabrina who runs http://www.equissagecalifornia.com. She gave Trucker a nice long body massage as he napped. He seemed to really enjoy that!
Then he was up and back to eating...
He even "helped" Felipe cleans his corral...
Speaking of eating, here is Sally's little dog Skeeter eating one of Trucker's carrots...
Our Super Gummies, Poker and Gomez share some Feed Fairy feed...
Our good friend Lisa brought her kids out to visit- here Tortilla and Taquito welcome the group...
The cloudy and windy skies over Shiloh...
Finished! Notice his crippled front leg, it looks like it has been fractured in the past. He also appears to be suffering from OCD in some of his joints. His one hind leg is twisted as well, but hopefully, with good hoof trims we can get it back into shape...
Poor guy...
