Books with Spirit – Joyfulness between horses and people

Here is a query about stringhalt from a reader that came in through the website.  I thought I would share my answer with you.

“I was just reading about bobbys case of stringhalt.  My thoroughbred also has stringhalt.  I’ve taken him out of the paddock and given him a mineral block and he has improved.  The only time it’s noticable now is when he makes the transition to a trot from a canter.  He has also dropped quite a lot of weight so I’m now hard feeding him and I’m just not sure if thats gunna make the stringhalt worse so I thought I’d ask your advice.  He has a round bale of grass hay in his paddock and I hard feed him chaf mixed with hygains honey bee. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.”
