    I took my horse's rug off a few days ago as it is beginning to get warm here and groomed her, she was perfectly fine.

    My 12 year old Appaloosa mare just started to get balding patches on her cheeckbones and on other parts of her face. I was curious as to if this was a disease or just something Appaloosas can get. She is our first Appaloosa and we have only had her for about six months. Please help, anything is...

    I have a gorgeous sorrel gelding (you can see him in my profile pic) that's been having some skin issues. He's so pretty, I hate to see him scrub off all his hair. I plan on calling the vet very soon to get a professional opinion, but I just wanted to know if anyone here might know what the...
