I just adopted poor False Identity I need to see if he's alright. He's a 10 year old Black Quarter Horse gelding. He's about 16hh.

"O. K." I say getting a needle. I carefully prick him and inject some fluid into her blood. False Identity winches slightly, "its O. K. easy boy." I say. "I just gave him his shots, now I have to give him some dewormer." I say putting some yellowish liquid in a large eyedropper. I quickly and carefully put some of the yellowish liquid in Flase Identity's mouth and I stroke his throat. He swallows. "Good boy." I say patting his neck. Then I look into his eyes, ears, nose and his mouth and he seems fine. Then I check his pulse and take his temputure (thats just something you gota do.) And he is fine. Oh! I almost forgot, I need to take a blood test to see if he has any diesages." Then I carefully preck False Identity and take a very small amount of blood then I walk out of the room and I come back in five minutes and say "O. K. we will have the results in ten minutes." *ten minutes later* "Good news! False Identity is fine. You should feed him 3 scoops of beet pellets and 1 flake of hay once a day. Take him to the farrier as soon as possible to get his hooves trimed. The bill is $200." I say waving.
