Bentley Gets Gelded

I took Bentley to the vet today. I went to load him in the van and I was shocked that he jumped right in! I guess all he needed was a little food motivation. Hubby was there to help but was also surprised he loaded so well. I will be working more on loading him next week. He is such a little champ in the van, perfectly behaved. At the vets today, he received all his shots and had his coggins pulled. He weighs 183 pounds and the vet said he might get up to 250 pounds. His gelding surgery went really good this morning, not much blood at all. It is official, he is now a gelding, woohoo!! The vet looked at his teeth, decided he didn’t need a float, said he had really good teeth for a mini, and that they all line up perfectly. The doc also guesstimated Bentley to be a 2 year old this spring or summer, so cart training will begin this fall!!!

Snip, snip



Bentley is now a gelding!


Recovering after surgery.
He took his sweet time getting up.



Still waking up from surgery.
