The Tin Man
 
I was watching HRTV today and they mentioned that The Tin Man was retired due to a broken knee that occured after he woke up from a minor surgery and started to thrash around. I haven't seen an article or anything yet. Hope he heals properly from his injury.

Oh, hope that's not true, one of my favorite horses!

HONU ?????

I am praying for him I love that horse. please try and keep us informed.

Honu 10-31-2007 06:26 PM

I will let everyone know what is going on and if there are any changes , right now he is tied up in the front of the stall because one wrong move and it could all be over for him.

paisjpq 10-31-2007 06:30 PM

that sucks...best of luck with him Honu.

Riot 10-31-2007 06:48 PM

He's a champion, Honu, we're all pulling for you. I'm sure everyone in the barn is devastated, but nobody better to have by his side, you've all taken such good care of him so far. Be good, Tin Man, be good!

Honu,

I hope he pulls through. You'll be in my prayers.

pdrift1 11-01-2007 10:53 AM

so sorry to hear this honu!!!! keep your spirits up as much as you can. i'l be thinking of old man. prayers are with him , you and the rest of the connections.

Honu 11-01-2007 01:06 PM

Tinny is about the same this morning , his spirit seems to be doing better than ours at this point . His eyes look good and his coat is healthy and he is munching away on his hay. I think he doesnt understand why he has to be tied up , he's all like what did I do wrong.
