Hello... I have an issue with a Missouri Foxtrotter I've had in training with me for more than 3 years now. I ride him western using a great deal of dressage & he does impecably. His owner gets on, trail rides, & what have you & he falls to his knees. As of recently, he's fallen on trail down a hill twice with her. I have tried to tell her to give him a rest.

I haven't ridden him consistently now in almost two months. (Unfortunately there are other issues at work here.) I love this animal very much and am now told that one vet suspects EPM... everyone in our area has EPM... it's like an epidemic lately... The other factor was possibly Wobbler's disease. I also found info on equine wobbler anemia, which would explain his lethargy on occasion.

Please give me anything you can come up with for my Bo horse.

Thanks in advance, Alethea
