Indian Warrior (aka Storm) is my heart horse. He’s a 17yr old, 15HH2 Appaloosa gelding who’s blind in one eye. He’s very highly strung, often living life on his nerves. He’s always suffered with gas colic and has been a constant cause of worry and stress every year from March until November (the grass growing months). He’s been hospitalised once with it and I have frequent vet call-outs to administer pain relief as he regularly suffered with these bouts of gas colic.
