This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I was going to mention this too. PJ's teeth are quite worn, and though he did fine (actually, too fine) on pasture, he couldn't really chew hay. I started him on soaked Timothy pellets about eight months ago and he's doing really well. Jamie In the Mountains SW of Denver, CO

If his teeth are bad, or scarce, then he might not be able to chew very well and may not be digesting as well. We had an old mare in New Mexico that had this problem. She was a little pinto, and was of undetermined age, since she didn't have much in the way of teeth. When we bought her she was underweight with a dull coat. We switched from hay to Equine Senior and soaked alfalfa cubes and that horse blossomed. I don't know if this is Gunnar's problem, obviously, but it's worth mentioning, just in case. ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.
