My lady is still bleedin furry! Initially I got all neurotic and self diagnosed Cushings, but her coat has fallen out in heaps and she's looked lovely and sleek, then before you know it she's back to pretending to be a Shetland again! (she's WB!) This has happened about 3/4 times already this year!
She's hairy enough at the moment I'll need to clip her, but am loathed to!

Anyone else's doing odd coat things? CK

Yep mine is, I posted about a week ago as he's really moulting at the moment but I don't seem to have noticed a summer coat this year! I also thought cushings but trying not to pass my hypocondriacte problem on to my horse, just don't think he was like this last summer.
 
Glad I'm not alone! I had bloods taken last year and her ACTH levels were nonindicative of Cushings but it still doesn't stop my loopy mind thinking it! I'm sure she wasn't like this last summer, but then some days I struggle to remember what I ate for supper the previous evening, so how I expect myself I remember anything from a year ago!
 
My little welsh A has only just shed hers, she kept it on round her belly and legs, almost stop starting because of the weather or something!
