Onna,
I have 2 Fjords that yawn excessively during stressful situations. If I am
training and they don't understand, they start yawning. I think this is very
common as I also had a Foxtrotter that did the same thing. Give him some time
to settle and I bet it stops.
Good Luck,
Julie

Hello,
Does anyone know the reason or reasons a horse may start to yawn
excessively. I recently have taken a horse with a 2 week lease toward
purchase.
After a
couple of days, he started to yawn. Maybe 6 to 8 times in a row. I have been
told this is because of pain, having to adjust to a new environment, or liver
problems. All different vets or people horse owner answers. I am taking him
to the vet today to check him out. He hasn't had his sheath cleaned and he
is 6 years old. So he may have a bean. He is also grieving for his old buddies
and home. He seems to be sound otherwise. Just had his feet done, and his
feet are fine. Incidentally he is a cross. Mom is 1/2 Arab and 1/2 QH, and his
dad is 1/2 QH and 1/2 Fjord. He is a really cute buckskin dun and very well
trained. Gets alone well with my Fjord. Thanks, Onna
