I think it was the oat hay that was fed to Cookie when we had to board the horses, that caused her to become so heavy and potentially IR. We finally have her weight under control. It helps feeding the horses separately as she is a fast eater and Charm is a slow eater, so Cookie was getting her own food and half of Charm's. Judy http://iceryder.net http://clickryder.com
