Drop It Like a Rock

The vet came out and checked Jagger's lungs and put him on pred and antibiotics. Alexis was congested too so he put her on a lower dose and gave her vaccs. She immediately collicked.

She dropped like a rock (picture was taken when she crumbled, I was just about to take a pic of her standing there and she just collapsed). Vet was only a few blocks away and came right back. Banamine and a bucket of oil to the rescue.

He checked her teeth, counted and inspected and said she's just barely two.
 



This is her backstory according to Sarah from Kentucky. Sarah bought her from an auction in Spring. She was sold as an untouched two year old who had been out running on large acreage with a herd. She had never even been haltered. Sarah spent a month or so with her and broke her to ride in late June/early July. During the process she used her to move cattle, run the dogs, hunting and general trail riding.
