Gil, the donkey dentist and Ken Norman, our farrier, came by the farm today to check on Simon, Lulu and Fanny’s teeth. It is amazing to see how an equine dentist and a farrier handle three large creatures, stick their hands down their throats, struggle to not be bit, and are loving and calm and very competent. I took some photos I am excited about and will post them on Facebook as soon as I get the chance. It is always a privilege to watch Ken Norman work with the donkeys. We learn so much every time. I don’t think I would want to be an equine dentist, though.
