"Hey girl, how are you? Sorry I can't stay and exercise you!" She nuzzles me and I give her a carrot. I get her muck bucket and clean out her stall. I put four bags of shavings in her stall and go to the feed room. I put two scoops of feed in her bucket and three flakes of hay under her bucket. Then I refill her water buckets with warm water. "Night girl, I love you, see you tomorrow!"

"Hey Last Breath...how's my girl?" I clean out her stall and put three fresh bags of shavings in it. Then I feed her her two scoops of feed and give her three flakes of hay. Then I refill her water and give her a carrot. I kiss her and close the door behind me. "Bye girl...see you tomorrow!"

"Hey girl, I can actually exercise you today! I know that you are dying to get out!" I take her out of her stall and bring her to the crossties. I take off her blankets and am amazed at the amount of weight she has gained! I brush her over and then pick out her hooves. They look a lot better with new shoes. I comb out her mane and tail til there are noi more knots and then put a medium blanket on her. I go and get her lingeline form the tack room and attach it to her halter. I lead her out to the indoor and send her away on the rail. She walks around me in a circle for five minutes and then I ask for a trot. She picks up a nice collected trot, and I realize that she will be a great dressage horse! She trots fo about two more minutes and then I ask for a canter. She bucks around the whole time and then I let her get her energy out and she eventually quiets down. What do I expect? She's been in her stall for a while. I ask her to walk and she does and I ket her walk for five minutes ot cool down. I ask her to come to the middle and she does and then I switch her lungline to the other side. I send her out, having her go to the other direction. I ask for a trot and she picks it up. She trots for five minutes and then I ask for a canter. She canters around and then I see the small lunging crossrail. It wasn't even a foot high. I slowly move over to it, making her come with me. She sees the crossrail in front of her, and instead of going around it like I expected, she jumped right over it! "Wow...good girl!" I walk her and let her cool out for fofteen minutes and them bring her back to the barn. I put her in the crossties and take off her blankets. I brush her and pick out her hooves and comb out her mane and tail. I put heavier blankets on her and clean her stall. I put four bags of shavings in her stall and give her two scoops of feed. I givee her three flakes of hay and refill her water. I put her back into her stall and give her a kiss. "Bye girl, see you later!"

I walk to my girl's stall and look in. She's looking right back at me. "Hey girl, how are you? You are looking soooo much better. I bet your almost at your normal weight!" I clean out her stall and put three bags of fresh shavings in it. Then I refill her water buckets and give her two scoops of grain. I give her two flakes of hay and then take off her blankets. I groom her, pick out her hooves, and comb out her mane and tail. I put her blankets back on and then give her a kiss goodbye. I close the door behind me. "Bye LasT Breath, I love you!"

"Hey beautiful girl!" I wlak into her stall with a grooming bucket and take off her many layers of blankets. She has gained soooooooo much weight and I'm so happy she doesn't have West Nile anymore! I start currying her, then I go over her with a hard brush and then a soft brush. She actually shines! I pick out her feet and then brush out her mane and tail. I put her fleece, her light stable blanket, her heavy winter blanket and then her medium turnout blanket over it all. It was really cold out! I get the muck bucket and clean out her stall. I put four bags of shavings in it to make sure she is nice and warm and toasty tonight! I give her two scoops of fedd and three flakes of hay. I refill her water buckets and give her a kiss. I walk out of her stall and close the door. "Night girl, I love you, see you tomorrow!"
