I just wanted to share a brief summary of the 4,000th time Dr. Bob has saved me from myself. I got both Batman AND Robin today actually, I felt quite assured they would fix my boys.
Solo's big ol' hole that was all mushy and gross and I was sure would lead to coffin bone infection and surgery and imminent death? It was an abcess that blew right through the frog. Dr. Bob was able to carve the whole thing out and all is well again. I never saw Solo limp though, so he snuck it by me!
Encore got a check-over by Batman to follow up on his sidekicks work and a thumbs up of approval was given. Dr. Bob did a little more work on his poll and then two fluid acupuncture injections behind his ears, which I had never seen before. Basically the fluid is a saline mixture (I forget what it was mixed with) that puts pressure on the nerve endings. Encore was completely unphased by big needles going into his skull -- he was fixated on the fact that the whole clinic smells like cows (Dr. Bob raises beef you can buy on the hoof) and nothing else mattered.
So I brought home two repaired ponies and hopefully, with the holiday weekend, I can, GASP, actually ride them!
