Thanks! I would do that, but I'm kind of being lazy. All I really need to know is who did the research so I can look up the actual research. I will try the interlibrary loan if no one else can help me.

Hey everybody! I was just wondering if anyone had their old Equus Magazines available if any of you would mind looking something up for me. I'm at college and I would look it up except all the magazines are at home!

QHAllAround to the rescue with all the genetic mumbo jumbo!

Maybe that poor guy is just a glutton for punishment. I had a dog like that, she thought skunks were evil little black and white cats. She got sprayed 12 times in one summer, never learned the lesson, lol. DeesMom, glad there were no pokies in your horses!
