Re: [RC] PocoBueno thing - Honeycrek2

I have a 19 yr old gelding that is a grandson of Poco Bueno (named Marco Poco Bueno, <cute huh?>) does this thing ever have a late onset? He has never had any problems other than with the occasional abcess from a bruise. Should I worry? Just wondering.


I think the problem arises when Poco Bueno is linebred in a pedigree (i.e. appears more than once).  It seems that crossing on his bloodline causes the genetic problem.

happy trails

When age prevents me from riding, I will
Still have horses as long as
I can shuffle along with a pail.
When I can no longer shuffle, I will roll
My wheelchair to the pasture fence
To watch my horses graze.
