Here is a reply I made to a horse owner on the FB group I thought you might be interested in. If so please let me know – maybe I’ll dig in deeper on the next AMA.
“Question:
I have been feeding a no grain diet for over a year and my endurance PSSM2 positive Arab mare and I have taken the time of distance riding to do some other things. So far…

Thank you for your reply. I asked this question as my mare has had a mild recent tying up episode. I have her Vit e and Se levels checked every 6 mos which have always been normal.

Reply to Weight loss in older horse
I enjoyed our phone call yesterday. You noted that the BCS was misrepresented here and should have been a 3 to 4.
The first question we did not discuss was why do you think he started to lose weight 3 years ago when before that he was an “easy keeper?” While a worse case scenario would include a disease, a more likely cause could be the… Read more

By the way, just because…
