Take your vitamins

I love the teddy bear feel the horses get each year as their winter coats grow in. They become so soft and cuddly. Monte's is very nice - and Curly's was especially thick and wonderful. But Zoe, well, her's is not coming in so great.

While talking to the barn owner last weekend, I mentioned that Zoe's coat didn't seem to be as thick and healthy as all the other horses. She quickly agreed, saying that she was actually a little concerned about what she was seeing. Zoe's fur just seems a bit dull and dry - not at all what we'd like.

Another horse owner had left some vitamin supplement (about half a tub!) almost a year ago; my barn owner gave it to me, hoping it would do the trick for Zoe. So Zoe now gets extra vitamins mixed in with a bit of grain each day. Crossing my fingers that this does the trick!
