Hello from Debby in San Antonio, Texas. I hope to be able to announce
I'm the owner of a 10yr. old mare, "Amber". She'd come back from
training with a bum leg, a fall while being lunged we think, so
hopefully just some soft muscle injury. We'll know more in a few days.
The seller is paying the vet bill as she wants "Amber" sound for me. I
have lots of questions, too many to ask right now, so I hope you will be
patient with my ignorance of Fjords but also with mares as she is my
first mare. Amber drives and was with the trainer for undersaddle
training. Shes 10yrs and had never had anyone on her back. I am an
amateur dressage rider so any help from dressage riders with Fjords
would be greatly appreciated. Amber is very strong on the ground, I have
no idea how she is undersaddle. Amber also drinks a tremendous amount
of water and her stall shows proof of this also. My vet will do a blood
test on her to check for Cushings disease. She's only ten though, has
anyone else had this in their horse. I think its a thyroid disease but
haven't been able to find much on the internet. If anyone has info on a
website I can visit I would appreciate the help. Thanks for any and all
help and information. Debby
