Hi, I have a old 30yr. old retired Quarter Horse/ Morgan cross Mare, who has a crazy thick winter coat- ( She does not have any health issues the vet ran a whole bunch of blood work last season she has no Cushing's Disease either. ) She is getting over some mud fever " Scratches" that she gets every spring because of the mud... But this is the first time I noticed her losing the hair on the back of all 4 legs in clumps it's from her pasterns to her "armpits"... She doesn't act like it hurts her, she is not itchy, and when the hair falls out or pulls out in clumps there is smooth skin with a whole bunch of new "baby" smooth hair growing underneath.
She does have very very thick coat on her legs... Could this have something to do with her shedding because it's spring? It's been a very wet year. Or is it normal with mud fever? Should I be concerned??
Any advice would be very helpful!
Thank you.
