So my last post mentioned how hot and humid it was...well, now only a few days later, the cool weather is on its way! It's not too bad tonight, but tomorrow night and Friday night are supposed to be very chilly!
I think my little pony is feeling the effects of the cool weather in her joints. She doesn't seem to be as smooth in her movement as she did earlier this summer, especially on her left hind. I want to try her on a glucosamine/chondroitin/hyaluronic acid supplement and see if that helps. There are SO MANY supplements to choose from, though! It boggles my mind!
It is also getting dark earlier! After work every day, I am racing through the barn chores just to get to spend time with my horses before the sun goes down. During the winter, it makes me sad that I almost never see my horses in the daylight. Sunshine is precious! :D

Hey there, thanks for stopping by my blog! I just did a post on the joint supplements I am using. I also asked for feedback because I am needing some help with this myself, so hopefully the comments section will offer some good advice!
I first noticed my horse's joint stiffness last fall. It seemed like once the days were warm and the nights were cool, he was off. The trainer that owned him then (I was just leasing him at that point) mentioned this was the case with him and to just work him hard. Yikes!
It does seem like we are losing our daylight quickly, doesn't it?
