....brought him in, he looked more happy then I have seen him in a while.
Stuck him on the lunge line....held my breath...no stiffness..Someone who was watching said to me: "You know, unless you were really looking for it, he looks pretty damn good." He IS still short in front and not quite stepping up under himself like I know he can - but, that can be understandable given his situation.
Someone else made the suggestion: I think you should ride him, get him stretching and supple. There is a LOT you can accomplish just walking for 35-40 minutes.
Hummmm, they have a point.
Tomorrow - I will see how he is and make a game time decision...and more importantly then anything else, listen to my gut!!
(Which at the moment is growling at me, but SO went out to grab Chinese while we watch the Oscar's...Anne Hathaway is super cute.)
Happy to hear that he seems better - don't you wish they could talk? The muscle soreness is a very plausible explanation as I know I would be pretty sore if I spent the last month doing nothing. Best of luck - I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you and Chester!
