Here is an update on Whiskey from his owner.
Hi Michelle,
All the horses have gained weight since switching over to 100% grass hay. They switched over right
before the big storm and we blanketed the horses for that storm. One evening last week, I put on
the blankets on Anabelle and Whiskey and had to take out the girth straps at least 6 inches for both
horses. Their fur is really fuzzy and soft now.
I don’t know if it’s just the change in weather, but other people are noticing that Anabelle’s coat has
really become a chocolate color and that Whiskey’s tail is actually black instead of light brown.
Whiskey hasn’t needed “gloves” in his pasture since they were sucked off by the mud during that
big storm. I got a pair of “gloves” from Linda Cowles for Anabelle because walking down the road to
the vineyards was wearing down her hooves in the front. Anabelle and Nellie are still on Slippery
Elm Bark. Nellie and Whiskey are on Yucca powder and Devil’s Claw Root powder. We’re still waiting
for our hay nets.
All the horses have been seen for chiropractic care.........They’re all getting more exercise and walks
down to the vineyard. I’m hoping to take some pictures today to email to you. :o)
Talk to you soon,
Linda
A couple of updated photos.

some skin issues. Below are some current pictures.

Below are updated photos of Whiskey. Whiskeys body looked very different than the first time I met
him in 2009. His body was relaxed, muscles smooth, coat was healthy, tail and mane were thick and
long. His hooves looked great, big round healthy hooves and his person reported that he has been
quite sound, barefoot. He is still dealing with sarcoids.
