RE: Re: [RC] [RC] founder - Sharon LevasseurYou know Ginny, everyone had managed to get on to bigger and better things... and then you just HAD to come back in here and stir the pot again. This can't be any more fun for you than it is for us, so please take your toys and play somewhere else. -Sharon L. -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ginny Holsman Sent: Saturday, March 11, 2006 7:48 PM To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: FW: Re: [RC] [RC] founder My best guess about the shiny coat is that the horse probably was kept in a blanket even when the weater was warm and sweated profusely as a result. Although there are many other possibilities.

They said she was recovering from an abscess in a front toe, but when the farrier checked her, she had special shoes on, and he said she had foundered recently. I didn't link the coat to the founder, but did find it odd that a horse that was so malnourished was so shiny. The mare's feet are doing great now, took special shoes off, and started light exercise. She has finally gained enough weight to cover all bones. (it was hard to put weight on her feeding only hay, but didn't want another founder.)That is very good info, Vicki. Now if some veterinary type on this list would just tell us what the relationship is between founder and that incredibly shiny coat, I'd be a happy (ride)camper! ------------------------ Lif Strand, Research Associate Southwest Center for Resource Analysis Western New Mexico University (505) 773-4897 (505) 212-0108 FAX -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
