Hi from Canada
Hi-I am Angela from Ontario Canada. I listened to the podcast on Best Horse Practises and then that led me to The Horse’s Advocate podcast and now here! I have 2 horses in my back yard-a mustang cross gelding and a track standardbred. I have not been a grain user but was fascinated by the protein discussion. I was getting a bit concerned about my mustang being on the grumpy/unwilling/angry side-I felt he was also a bit rounder than I would like. I realized it wasn’t just with me but that it seemed to be around food with other horses. My standie came with a low body score, a roached back and OCD. He’s improving bit by bit. He was 6 but looked 16. I’d say he looks 12 now. I’m optimistic that one day we may be able to get him going under saddle. Glad to be here.

Hi Angela – we are glad to have you here! Thanks for following the information – it is what “Advocates” do to find answers even though they might be “outside the box.” But when questions don’t seem to get adequate answers, we all dig deeper because our horses need solutions to the issues we see today. Behavior issues, loss of muscle, osteochondrosis desiccans (OCD) all need solutions. Together we will get to the bottom of this.
I see you have other postings with questions so let me get to them. Again, welcome! Doc T
