It was a nice weekend for the Shannon Down crew (you can see the weekend news on our News page on the website). But on Sunday while GiGi was coursing she crashed and fractured her skull. Mom took her to the vets yesterday morning, our vet put her on Vancomycin and we're keeping her quiet (not easy for GiGi) and watching her closely. She is acting like her normal self, the sub-Q air under her skin is going down (she has a little split in the skin where she hit her head), her head has swollen up that night but it is also going down, but mom can now feel really well where it is broken. The depression is a little longer thanan inch and about 1/2" wide, our guess is she either landed on a pulley or a rock. She will just be taking it easy and being a couch potato for now and we'll keep an eye on things.
