He also palpated and flexed the leg. All looked good! Taco jogged very energetically, so to speak-- there was plenty of mane-tossing and strutting.
We sent the images and exam results up to Duncan Peters, who gave the OK to start legging up. Starting this coming week, we will walk 30-40 minutes a day and trot 5 minutes. After that we will start increasing the trotting. If all goes well, we can maybe canter in 8 weeks.
Doc is still being his lovely little self.
I was laid up for January myself, and I have been riding again since the end of the month. But all three of us-- Taco, Doc, and me-- are back in action now. We are ready for 2012!
