So ulcers is a pretty common suggestion if you look at any questions about unwanted horsey behaviour...but i was just wondering how many of those horses actually do have ulcers. Is it as common as the internet would have you believe? The last statistics I saw were about 90% of racehorses and 60% of competition horses suffer from ulcers.
However I have only known one horse that has had ulcers, which was my friends ex racer so 'typical' ulcer type.
My vet says cobs dont get ulcers but I have heard of one cob definitely having ulcers but I didn't know the horse personally.
So how many horses do you know that have had ulcers? And were they all 'ulcer' type or have you seen cob types with ulcers too?
Just curious
