hey guys.
right well iv recently 'rescued' my yard owners daughters pony because hes in the field doing nothing,getting fat and just generally being neglected. hes had laminitis before and atm he is huge!! hes in quite a big field but the grass isnt great and he seems to be fine.
thing is im starting to ride him again so im just wondering what you all would do to start him loosing the weight... would you walk inhand/ride/lunge/a mixture? i also worry about a lack of miberals so.im putting him.on some low cal food suitable for laminitics so he gets vitamins.
the main issue is how do i get his weight off safely?
sorry for the ramble!!
