Remember I mentioned that Walter was yawning a lot? I am still intrigued by that. Even took some pictures but I do not know what I did to my memory card and now it wants to copy all the pictures not just the recent ones to my computer :-(
Anyhow I went to take him some water but he did not want any and started yawing. I was holding his pink bucket and set it down on the fence so I could take his picture. I will be darned if he did not up and toss the darn thing full of water and got me wet!
I told him what a bad boy he was for doing that and he did his horse sound, shook his head and left me talking, lol! Just like he did the day I reprimanded him when he took off through the downed back fence and would not let me catch him!
That was yesterday around noon. I came back in the afternoon and he just ignored me and stayed on the other side of the corral even though I called him to the fence several times.
This morning his owner was welding something for his new shed so I could not go visit him until he left. Would you believe he is still ignoring me? Have NO idea what has gotten into that horse :-(
That is really strange!
ReplyDeleteIt sure is Trouble.
DeleteHorses have problems with their teeth, sometimes they may need to be floated or filed down.If he has a tooth that hurts he will yawn
ReplyDeletea lot or this jaw could be hurting him.It is hard to tell what is wrong unless you look in his mouth.Do they keep his hoofs trimmed?
Walter is a good looking horse,he just needs better care and lots of love.Again he is lucky to have you looking out for him.
Bargirl238 - I basically have little to no knowledge about horses or their care. The little I know I have learned from your comments.
DeleteI do not think they keep his hoofs trimmed, he has had what I believe to be a mesquite thorn on his hind hoof that they have never removed and it is hurting him.
Finally was able to post pictures of Walter yawning!
