Today I let Dan graze a good bit in the dog pasture. He was happy enough to chomp on grass. Then later I changed his bandages and bemered him. Then I let him spend the rest of the day with his patio opened up to the little paddock between the pasture and the driveway. He was happy enough out there. And even pooped and peed out there, so yay!
(Last night he was out there some too while I was cleaning his stall and he found my hay bag and was flapping it around! ha ha!).
Then I decided he had to stay in like usual tonight because I had to spread manure and I didn't quite trust him to not escape overnight. And tomorrow it's supposed to rain and he still has bandages on, so he definitely won't get to be out tomorrow. Although, I will let him keep his patio. Hopefully his bandages won't get too wet.
And then... I took him for another short walk and we did some pillar work this evening. And he got a bit feisty! You can tell when his trazadone has worn off! But bless him, he's being pretty darn good considering! I have a feeling that come Saturday.. he'll get a little bit of turn out in one of the lanes... and then it probably won't be too much longer before I cave and just turn him out.
