Dia de Los Puercos

Last Tuesday was the Day of the Pigs at Shiloh. All of the guys got together to trim the Shiloh pigs' hooves. There was lots of running, catching, squealing and laughing. Trimming pig hooves is in no way an easy job!



First, the pigs have to be caught. Felipe had to go into the pig houses and pull them out...


Arturo supervised...


Sonny was up first. He looks quiet in this photo but all the pigs squeal incredibly loud the entire time they are being trimmed!


Next up, Cher...


It took all the guys; Felipe, Todd, Arturo and Diego...


Four strong guys, one pig.


Felipe worked quickly with the clippers while the other three guys held the pigs...


Dr. Schur was out working on some of the boarded horses so the guys caught Honey Boo Boo for a pregnancy check up. She lead the guys on a merry chase before they finally caught her by the Medical Units. We were concerned that she was possibly pregnant- but, thankfully, it is confirmed that she isn't!


We also had BLT's possible hernia examined. Dr. Schur doesn't know if it is a hernia or a big growth- but BLT, an older male, gets around just fine and seems happy as he wanders freely on the ranch- so we are just keeping an eye on him.


Todd and Sausage Patti


Jimmy Dean was last to be worked on. Of course he squealed the entire time!

Slider Under Saddle

Slider was filmed on 2/12/13. He is a five year old Quarter Horse gelding, broke to ride and has nice manners. A good boy!
