One of my old horses always used to do this and I never thought anything of it .. we had a bad case of ulcers which we tried treating with a number of things (usual Gastroguard etc) .. he made some improvements but ulcers kept coming back.
I used one product (if anyone wants to know, please PM me .. last time i mentioned it I got slated and accused of belonging to the company!) and within 24 hours the hay dunking which he had done without fail for 7 years .. stopped. He was a different horse and the ulcers healed. I had him another 2 years after this and if he ever started dunking hay again, I knew he was getting ulcers again , (when we were competing alot , or he was having to be kept in) .. started treatment and again , the dunking stopped.
I am not so complacent now when I see a horse dunking hay, not saying it is always due to this , but I would have a big question mark in my mind if one of mine started to do this again

GermanyJo Please PM me what you used :)

You’d be better to start a new thread as I don’t think that poster is here anymore so may not respond

For everyone else *zombie thread*
