- The barn
- The barn manager
- Bad feed
- Horse in adjacent stall
- Wrong bit
- Oxygen deprivation
- Previous owner
- Bad breeding
- Sore feet
- Arthritis
- Wrong supplements
- Needs shoes
- Previous trainer
- The farrier
- He’s flighty
- And now, a missing teat
As Rick Gore has stated a million times, “It’s you, you big dummy!”
