I think he established himself as head horse without even trying. Stormy and Buccees gave him back that role as soon as they greeted them. I’m just curious how Rita does. I also think it’s good for him to be back with his family to continue his healing. When people come home from the hospital after major surgery, the doctor tells them to get rest, no heavy lifting, keep wound area clean, etc. But he never says no visitors, no friends and family spending time with you, because part of healing is avoiding depression. Isolating oneself away from your family can cause depression. Now, I wouldn’t leave him out there with no supervision, and he should be put in his own loafing shed after a while to sleep. But he could go into the barn with his family during the heat of the day. I know it’s tough on you Jami. These are more than just farm animals to you. These are your babies and you want to protect them the best you can. And I think you do a great job at it even if you’re unsure. And don’t forget, Lester has been doing this his whole life. Trust him too. - Sue in AZ

It does look like all is well with the herd towards Voodoo, at least throughout this video, anyway. My concerns are Bucees if he starts biting Voodoo, & Rita if she gets too excited. I could watch this horse herd/family all day & never be bored!

And I have to say I was wrong, you know your horses and it looks like everything is going to be ok.

I know this kind of wound's and many other's do, too. As Jami asked us what we would do we all (me inclusive) wrote: No let him heal first and than put him back into the herd. I still have this opinion for all the time but if it is just a few hour's a day it is good for him. I admit that I was wrong, too. If you only see a few moments and it is not your horse you cannot come to the right opinion. As my mare had this on her leg, she was in the pasture, too but also only a few hour's and after the wound did heal very good. It was still open but she needed the other horses not only me walking with her.

I would think if he got in the pond to cool off, which in this horrible heat he probably will that the pond water might be able to cause an infection! That's what I would worry about! Everytime I've had an open wound and went in a river, it almost always got infected! It might not hurt to ask a veterinarian if it would be bad if pond water got on that wound! It's just something I thought about, and it wouldn't hurt to ask a veterinarian about it! Just a suggestion trying to look out for our precious Voo! 🫶🌹🙋🏻♀️

BTW, I commented to Lester that now could be a good time to plant shade trees at JL. He was talking about how eventually, in some years, everyone could wind up there but there’s not enough shade in the front property. Three or four or five years would be a good start as our summers are only getting hotter. ❤
