Got to work with this wonderful Suffolk Punch mix again. OSCAR therapy revealed Bart retained his brain muscle connection throughout most of his body but we still have work to do. He has gained in his team pulling work but still is not comfortable being on the left when hitched. He is a horizon watcher who is missing shoulder, wither and flank of left side. Makes sense that he would rather have his vulnerable side protected by his partner, thus preferring to be hitched on the right. Working in 2 feet of snow with 20mph gusts, Bart reengaged with our OSCAR therapy work and I'm confident Reva can take the reins. This is the perfect exercise for him given limited footing. Come Spring Bart will be ready!
Any Springtime OSCAR work you are doing? Just send off a video to me and I will be happy to post!
