Well, the vet came out for Cooper and he is FINE! Not completely fine, he does have the beginnings of a very nasty abscess. The vet thinks the he actually cut his hoof with something very sharp. But the cut was inside the hoof and that’s why I could not see it. The vet had to sedate Cooper and dig some of his hoof out. Then he cleaned it out and wrapped it with cotton and vet wrap. Then he put a layer of duct tape so the bandage would stay on. Also the vet removed Cooper’s shoe and found some bruising as well. So that was a double negative for poor Cooper.
With all of this being said, I am just happy that he is ok and in a week or two he will be back in training! Which I am pretty exited about! Also it means he will be able to move to his new ranch sooner than later. Which is also pretty exciting.
I am still pretty bummed with how my life is going right now. I really miss my dear Fen and my friends and family in Los Angeles. And I am tired of being alone all the freakin’ time. I’m really hoping that when I move to the new ranch I can meet some friends there or at least trail riding buddies. I would totally be fine with just that. I know almost no one up here. And it’s really hard for me to make friends. I just lose my nerve I guess. But once I get acquainted I am fine from that point on. I just have a problem approaching people and breaking the ice. I should study how Cooper makes friends, he seems to have an easier time then I do.
In addition, to all of that I really want a dog! I know that that is random. But I have always grown up with dogs and I miss having one. I have my cats but it is not the same thing. Cats are more independent and take care of themselves. Dogs need you and depend on you to take them to go potty ect. And I kind of like having to take care of a dog. And I feel like I am more connected to dogs. And I find it Ironic that I will be going to dog training school and do not have a dog. But enough with that....
So like I said I am still feeling a little blue. But things are starting to look up for me. So I am going to end this blog on a positive note right now. Because right as this second I look out at my window and I see the sun peeking out from the clouds. And it makes me smile...
Sigh (of relief)
