June 7th. Two weeks after the op and Fred is still doing well. She is now turned out in a small paddock with her best friend Emily. They don't charge about, thank goodness, but Fred is getting a lot of slow, walking exercise daily, with the odd trot. She is much happier in herself and has grown 2 hands in her mind since the operation - she is full of herself instead of being the quiet mouse she was before, always worrying about her stifle catching - much happier.
