The video included with this update shows a much-improved 1-11 immediately after one such therapy session. He puts up little resistance during the wing stretching, takes treats from us and in general appears to be back to normal. He is nowhere near 100% but I'll take any improvement.
In this video starting less than a minute after a session 1-11 (white leg-band) is still hanging around with us costumes in the front of the pen, mingling with his cohorts and even shoots down a challenge with a single glance. The challenge comes at the 0:11 mark of the video and is proposed by colt 3-11 (red leg-band). You will see 1-11 and 3-11 lock eyes and raise their heads.
3-11 looks away first and thus shows his submission to 1-11. It's a slow process but 1-11 is coming back. Any improvement has been an extremely welcome advance in my eyes.
