I Took Him Out On A Walk Instead

After a few days in a small paddock and after Friday’s jumping session, China’s legs were puffy and swollen this morning. We decided not to have the lesson I had planned but I took him out on a walk in hand instead to get the fluid moving.

There was a real improvement after just a 30 minute walk out so I am not particularly worried and he went back out into a big field where he would do lots of moving about.
