I loved reading Trigger's story and so much echoes the story of my Ted. Ted came from an auction, where many horses are shipped for slaughter. He landed at a rescue, was adopted, it didn't work, and he was sent to a "trainer" in my area and placed for adoption. That's when I found him. He was in terrible shape and we slowly worked. Ted was diagnosed with Cushing's last year and sudden onset of laminitis and can no longer go out in grassy pastures. Poor guy.
I love that you and Trigger still share a beautiful bond and he spent Tuesdays with you pre-chemo ♥️
Sounds like Ted was lucky to find you, and you him. Cushings and the laminitis it seems to bring is so hard to manage, it is so sad when they can't be out at grass and have to keep saying it's for their own good. Tigger is the type who could get it very easily so I've always managed him very carefully, and one of his companions has EMS so it works well for them together.
