Well done, not something I see every day . . . Gigs

Nicely done, Flo. The poor guy (horse) doesn't seem terribly pleased with the process, but maybe that's just from the angle we're watching at. That's quite a contraption he's wearing, but it looks like it works well. Interesting story-telling image.

What was the horse thinking has his Flo stood nearby with a mysterious gadget?

Good job on the -probably- harder job of the vet
