My horse has been accepting a abscessed aback lately.
When I aboriginal bought him, he was VERY fat, and we ride western, so I bought him a ample western saddle which adapted him PERFECTLY.
Now he's absent the weight, it's a bit big and ws causing him a abscessed aback for a while, again I got the chiro out and again bought a new saddle.
I own an appaloosa and his dam has amaranthine maounts of thouroughbred in her so I bought a 6" gullet to fit his accept and it fits him GREAT but the aback of it sits up a bit triangular if i'm not sitting on it.
The added day I went for a 4 hour ride, mostly walking, and it as hot. Would he of gotten saddle sores? He has one or 2 rub marks but thats it.
He's got a little rainscald on his back, would that could could cause him to accept a abscessed back?
The affliction seems to be on the absolute aback itself. Also, he was in affirmation for a month, and if I brought him out, his courage at the aback was showing, and now he's up to weight, it hasn't gone away. He's been accepting abscessed aback then.
