Aries is improving

This is a strange mare---while in full time training, she maintained her body condition quite well. She comes here, lives the life of leisure and eats full time while doing absolutely nothing---and goes to pot. I swear these horses live to torment me.

Now, when everyone else is struggling with the heat, she is actually starting to gain weight! She still has quite a ways to go to be where I would like to see her, but just two or three weeks ago, she looked HORRID and I was convinced I should call the Hooved Animal Humane Society on myself. Then bam- she starts porking up.

Just goes to show that all the planning, fretting and worrying over one of them serves only to make me feel better--when she was good and ready to look better, she did. Now let's all pretend we did not notice so that she will continue to improve and build that wonderful Slybaby she is cooking for us!
