I decided after a quite lengthy "meet and greet" with the potential addition and after going over him with a fine toothed comb
I decided to load him up for the long ride home. Other than a trim of the hooves he looked healthy on the outside, had good teeth
and to the best of my knowledge was in good shape. He has a calm disposition and when we put his pack saddle on there was a clear
change in his mindset. He was ready to go for a walk. I guess if his blood/fecal tests come back positive for CAE the only option I have
is to send him to the butcher, but not really fond of that idea. There could be other options, but I'm uninformed on those options. I seem to have
a problem uploading pics from my phone, so I will get some up when I get a chance.
