My Vet finally has all the stats on Gunnar and is concerned about the
fibrinogin (sp) reading as it should be 4 but it is 8. Hope I did not turn
that around. It is a sign that there may be a tumor somewhere There is

Hi Jean,
That sounds like something that can be fixed! And Fjords do have a
lower hematocrit than breeds such Thorougbreds. so do draft
horses. I still think a good Senior feed would be best as it is
processed for older horses with wor

Hi Lee et al. The Vet has been trying to reach me but I have been going from
place to place. He found Gunnar to be anemic and has suggested adding grain,
corn oil and a little alfalfa to his diet. His teeth are quite worn and the

I have found boiled wool to be very warm, and more dressy than fleece. I do
like the easy washability and quick drying of polar fleeceand it's less

Pamela, Thanks for the concern re Gunnar. It could be his teeth and also
the hay has been poor this last year. Altho I fed him three times a day it
may have not been enough. He also has rice grains and low cal grain. Vet

If you want nice soft Fjord fur, go for the stuff on the forehead under the
forelock. One of my big spring pleasures is pulling it off. It starts
shedding a bit later than the body. If I were a two year old, I would stuff
it up my nose, h

Yes, they make nice things from sled dog fur; only problem is when
it gets wet, it smells like wet dog!

Thanks Jamie, for the ideas and help. I am hoping it is his teeth or
digestion slowing down. The Vet will be here Monday so can suggest to him
the ideas I have received here. He is a good man and we are friends. Age

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.

Could it possibly be his teeth that are a problem? 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
