Palomino's Training Journal-Showtime!

[Mini Horses]

The timing -- amount of damage before point of no return. Plus, regeneration of tissue takes t.i.m.e. it's not like a shot of Novocaine, immediate.

Certainly an option for many. I suspect the cost is also prohibitive for many.

Erick is doing something where the doctors take stem cells from his own blood or marrow and then inject them into his knees. He is hoping to avoid knee replacements. He says it is actually doing the job. Expensive and not covered by insurance but he can't be laid up with surgery.

My grandpa has got that done and said it really helped him, I know one of my relatives wanted to get it done but they mix it with someone else's blood I guess and they required that it be from someone who has had the covid shot so she didn't do it

I did my stem cell pre-covid insanity.... back in the 2015-2018 time frame I think.

I don’t blame her.

Finally getting a chance to catch up on messages and post again. Yes the patches really are an incredible innovation that has been life changing for so many people I know, including myself! Now it looks like I'm off to the big international conference in Dallas next month, the week after a horse show! Nothing like keeping busy and I certainly have been. My last consignment horses are now in the cart and I've been working at getting my own horses back into show training, in addition to the lesson program, which is really taking off, and sharing the patches, which I get to do with almost everybody!


Some pictures from this month! Fall is here and the weather could not be better. Finally going to see Lexington in full Fall foliage which will be lovely. I did get to watch the World Championship Horse show last month, but will have to save that for another post!

You might notice a theme of big moving horses! These are 5 of the 7 driving horses here now.

The other two driving horses. Thanks to the patch, Rocket can even be turned out with the geldings now! He hasn't worn one recently either.

Tomas was a bit sad after his stallmate left for her new home, so I put him back to work and he's thrilled. Of course Amigo had to play too. Started out "low" for these two!

My new carriage for showing the minis.

My little watchdog!

Livin' the dream!

I love your photos!

 

[Finnie]

Your new carriage is beautiful!

 

[Ridgetop]

High jumps for those little horses!

I love the high knee action your carriage horses. Beautiful. You can't teach that - they have to have it in theier genetics.

Early mornings and late nights mean one thing, shows are just around the corner! It's going to be a crazy month, but well worth it. Starting off with a breed show in Indiana with Tomas this coming weekend, then the carriage show in Tenneseee the following weekend, but I am also going to the international conference on the light patches in Dallas the same weekend!

Also busy starting the last consignment horses in the cart, and Trooper is back for a few months!
