      First of THANK YOU, both, goearth & Truman. I do not feel so bad to ask now.
       This ones on bathing, as you know after all that sweating,
    he surely needs a bath. It seems to be drying out his skin,
    (especially mane & tail), as he seems to be getting some dandruff. I have tried head in shoulders, & conditioner, but
    seems to actually dull his coat. I have started to add some
    flax to his feed. Beet pulp,  &  10% grain. I never give him oil, as my Vet always told me that it does not help, it just makes things pass through a horse, so nothing fed with oil
    gives them any benefit at all. I really think it's from to much bathing. Any suggestions for this one?? I will cut back to 3 days a week riding now instead of the 5 day's I was riding.
    2 less baths may help???
                     THANKS AGAIN!!!
