Whoops! I spoke too soon! I just got a message from someone needing help with her import who has some bolting problems. Darn! Back about ten years ago, we started doing Icelandic rescue / rehab not really realizing the high number of problem Icelandics that were out there. Besides myself, several others on the list have been involved in trying to help and fix the rehab / rescue Icelandics. After all this time, and after seeing first hand, here and in Iceland, we have a pretty good idea of the problem areas and how to help many of the horses. So hopefully we'll be able to help the gal who just wrote this morning. I'll invite her to the list. Judy http://iceryder.net http://clickryder.com
