Hope no one else has already said this! It used to be the concern of Vets
that if you cut too young or before maturity, they would not get their full
growth. My huge Trakehner was cut at 11months (after he properly mounted
his dam after one month of"weaning") ((he was so big he would get down on
his knees to suckle and it was the embarrassment of the neighborhood)) and
the Vet still swears, altho the horse was 17 3 1/4, that his neck would have
been thicker if we had waited. Jean Gayle
