More updates on Simon

The vet in Ste Hyacinthe says Simon can go to his new home today. Yes, that's right: Simon has been adopted!!

His last culture was clear and his digestive system is functioning normally. He'll be on antibiotics for a couple of weeks, and he needs a diet high in fibre (lots of hay) and unlimited water, but the vet says that he seems to be fully recovered.

Simon's former owner dropped off the signed owner surrender sheet along with his vet and farrier records, as well as a 2009 Coggins. We'll pass that information along to his new owner, Jeanine, so that she can add it to her records.

Jeanine plans to pick Simon up in Ste Hyacinthe, pay the remainder of his vet bill, and take him home to her farm this evening. We wish them both all the best and look forward to updates on his progress.

Many thanks to Christine Allard of Forever Green Stables in Glen Robertson, Ontario, for helping us find the perfect home for Simon so quickly!
