> For years, many people (Icelander trainers, sellers, breeders) denied > that Icelandic horses ever founder
Karen, I have NEVER hear this. Since you've heard if from "many" please point us to one or two instances, website, message number, etc. Thanks. > I've never heard of an Icelandic horse being treated, for instance, > for navicular - although it may have happened. I have. IMO manmade disease, so of course Icelandics have suffered with it. I've posted before why I believe founder is less common in Iceland. But it does happen, Years ago an Icelander posted how his friend was devastated when he had to put down his best/favorite mare due to founder (before your time Karen). Yep an "Icelander" publicly admitting to founder. I am very curious where you keep hearing/reading this claim that Icelandics never founder. The only place I keep hearing if from is you and you have never, that I'm aware of, backed up your claim.
