While we had Doc and Steve both here for the donkey drama, we had Tyla sedated so we could do her feet, as well.  We had to be very careful to lay her down in a way that wouldn't stress her bad leg but thanks to Doc, Steve, and Scott, we were able to do so with a minimum of fuss.  Tyla's trotting about now on blessedly shorter hooves.  We will have to come up with some sort of sling for next time, to make it easier on both her and Steve.

And you can see Miss Macy's growing like a weed!  She was rather confused at mama laying down, but she handled it well.
