Charly; Its Not Good News.

So as most of you know .. Something has just not been right with charly since july. On monday i had a specialist vet out and he hoped he would get the all clear to come back into work..

**Whats Happening**
Sadly thats not the case. Charly has arthritis in both his hocks, has fetlock problem due to an old injury and the kick he got a few weeks ago. He also has a problem with his front leg with the old injury.. which we do not what is wrong with that yet. He also has secondary back pain due to all his leg problems. Hes having X rays and nerve blocking done next week to discover the true extent of his problems. Its going to be expenisive. But hes worth it to me and i will NEVER sell him.

**Whats going to happen**
Its going to be expenisive. But hes worth it to me and i will NEVER sell him. Depending on what we find with the nerve blocking and X rays he will most likely get special injections for the arthritis in his hocks which will cost £1000 at least. Then what ever needs to be done with the front leg will be done. I want him to be sound, happy and comfortable.
On the riding front the vet says if all goes well he should still be able to carry on doing things a riding club level and that sort of thing, jumping dressage xc. Nothing to hard though. Which unfortunately means he wont be going england with me. I want toHes going to be kept here at home, and used as my brothers horse and he will continue to ride and compete him lightly. (Which im thrilled about, My brothers a good rider and him and charly get on so well.) So until that time when i leave for uni i will continue to ride Charly if he comes sound and my i will be helping my brother riding him, david will be jumping him etc. if all goes well.. so i will video that.

So things didnt turn out the way I planned. Thank god i have kody which makes it a little easier..
But i will be getting a new horse next year for going to uni.

[sonjabright]

im sorry about it but at least hes not going to the other end of the world and you can still see him sometimes. :(

[HorsesDogs123]

i am so so sorry about Charly i have watched many of your videos and it was clear that he had the potential to go all the way, it must be really hard for you, especially as you're at uni but at least he's in safe hands with your brother, just know that he is a very lucky horse (and very beautiful!) because you are giving him everything he needs for the road ahead most owners would sell their horses not give it the love and care you are, i really hope he is better soon and good luck at uni!! xxx
