let me tell you about Sampson. Hes a two-year-old percheon draft horse we took out of Stroud Kill Pen . He was about to walk up the ramp to the trailer heading to Auction. He had a "stiffel" right keg. Brought him to ny . 

Seems the stiffel prevents him from locking his rear leg . So he can't sleep standing up. The stiffel gotten worse with all this mud it swollen. Which is why he went down and couldn't get back up. Seemed it happen early around midnight found him around 8  which is a longtime to be down . We had to hoist him up by straps after he received lots of iv fluids. Wasn't looking good heart rate was 80  30 is normal. So this was a hail mary .. well it worked he was up . But 4 hours later he started to colic as we were planning on putting him in a suspension harness to help reduce  the stiffel and strengthen his legHello,
