Wizard: Show Me Those Pearly Whites!

November 10, 2008

Naptime

Wizard had his first chiropractic treatment on Oct 29. It was bittersweet to have the equine chiropractor out to the barn since I associate her with all of the great work she did for Alibar. But I was happy to have her treat Wizard.

The good news: she felt no new soreness or stiffness, which made me feel way better about his recent girthiness. She said that he adjusted remarkably well and has a lovely limber neck. I told her that he does yoga in his paddock- I’ve seen him do a perfect circus pony bow to grab a blade of grass under the fence.

The bad news: she feels that his teeth most likely need a lot of work. Then get his feet trimmed. Then get back to riding him ;^)

So Wizard will be getting his teeth floated this week. Will report back with the results!

    Beautiful horses. I hope Wizard is feeling better now. Yes, please have an Equine Dentist look at his teeth. I am a true believer in having a horse’s teeth floated and any dental problems taken care of. Best of Luck.
