My mom's horse Arab is sick. At first she hoped it was just worms, so she got him worming medicine. It takes a while to work, but the way he's acting isn't like he has worms.
He didn't eat his hay yesterday, but drank water and alfalfa pellets. But he was also laying down quite a bit. Today, he hardly even ate any of the pellets. He layed down after a few bites, and even let Honey finish it.
I mean I know he's old, but he's never layed down that much before. Him being old is also why I'm afraid he's dying.
My mom's biggest dream was to have horses of her own, and she finally has two. Now she might have to watch one die. Those horses are like her babies. I mean she's the only one Arab really lets touch him. I can tell she's really worried, and trying not to cry.
And unless I can cure him, there's nothing I can do to cheer her up. I really hope he gets better because my mom had to give up one of the best dogs she's ever had last year, and I don't want to have to see her go through that again. Plus I still love him too, I don't want him to die.
