At last. I think I finally can relax. Since we started to add warm water to his water bucket in his outdoor paddock, the problems have disappeared. Dinio doesn't drink enough if the water is cooler than 30 degrees. Now I am thinking of bying a ThermoBar, but within one month Dinio will only spend about 4 hours per day in his outdoor paddock, so I will see if this investment is necessary. They are quit expensive, about 3.000 SEK.

Anyway - Dinio is very happy indeed, loves his food, which he enjoys very much, especially Lucern. I am giving him about 1,5 kg per day among with 1,5 kg Hippolyt's Structur-E, 1 kg of Mash and 10-12 kg of hay. Feels good to be able to give him the amount he needs in order to put on some more muscles on his body. It has already started to show. Adding som photos from today.

The training are continueing and Dinio is doing very well. I am so pleased and we are finding each other more and more.

The best thing Dinio knows is to take long walks around Täljö or into the forrest. Now when it's dark around 15.30 in the afternoon, we does this during the weekends, when I can ride in day light.

We are still having warm weather, which shows on the electric bill. Well, I am now friend of winter but I really hope for a white Christmas anyway.

Enjoy the todays photos!!

During this week Dinio had 2 minor gas cholic attacks. I am of course very concerned about this and have tried everything. I am now quit sure that he is feeding on something in his outdoor paddock. Have therefor decided to minimize his time spent there. I have also bought last years hay, which was a good hay year in Sweden. Smells fantastic, green and no dust. Cross my fingers.... Otherwise he is doing very well. We have had some fantastic moments this week and today my darling mother joined us and took some photos from the todays session. He felt wonderful today and I think it is shown in the photos. We are still having warm weather, about 10-12 degrees during day time and about 3-5 degrees during the nights. I am no friend om winter so I hope this warm weather will stay for a while. Dinio has got his winter shoes on - so he is prepared. Next week I will try to put on the winter tires, both on my car and on the trialer. You never know when the snow arrives. Please enjoy the todays photos!!
