He ended up having a loose tooth,which the vet pulled. It took him 25 minutes to get it out and 20 minutes to sedate him beforehand. However, he was very patient and never lost his temper with our little mini hinny.
It was quite lonesome at the farm without our little trouble maker. Scout's butt was never bitten (in play) by Diesel and Eddie never got to chase him out of his paddock. hehe, such boys!
But, Diesel came home around 5:30 yesterday and he is sleepy, sore and recovering. However, he recovering very well. Grazing like a champ (pardon the pun) and eating hay and Ontario Dehy.
Here are some pictures of him being floated:
So, we're going to have the vet out to do Eddie's teeth and Scout's in the fall. They will need it and we trust the vet with our boys since he has worked on Eddie multiple times.
*sigh of relief*
As of now, all is good, horses are happy and we're hunkering down for another hot day.
Thank you all for all the prayers and well wishes. God certainly had His hand working throughout the day!

Your judgments I have laid before me.

Glad the offending tooth was removed - that's what it sounded like.
Glad that Diesel is alright! :) Hope he feels better soon.
Yup, he's doing much better. Resting in his stall with a fan on him. At least there's a breeze today, that makes the heat so much more bearable!
