Today we paid a visit to Dr. Jen for another laser treatment. She suggested we come in as often as we can; even daily if possible. While daily is out of the question, we may be able to come in weekly. I don't know that we will need much longer though, but you be the judge from these pictures:

Thank you Jeanie for paying for his treatment today! That was a wonderful surprise :)
And thank you Dr. Jen Powers... you are the best.
Now, I am going to tell you something, and please don't laugh:
It seems that when you put a Parelli training stick and string in my hands, turn me loose in a pasture with a horse (where nobody is looking, of course!), I suddenly get this notion that I am an Olympic gymnast with one of those long streamers in my hand. My old ballet training takes over and I end up twirling the string, and myself, all around that boy! I guess you can call it my version of the Parelli "Extreme friendly game!" By now I am sure you are thinking I am a bit "odd," shall we say, but it is amazing how much a horse and dancer have in common.

Oh, yes, and I use him for my personal ballet stretching bar too:
He doesn't even flinch when I raise a leg up and put it on his back. What a good boy!
Of course, if you still think I am crazy, just remember that I am trying to desensitize him to as many unusual things as possible! :)
