Our little mare is a real minger!
she has black nasty stuff which gets all down her back legs and in her tail etc and it stinks.
I know what it is (much worse in summer when she's in season) but why does she get like it? No other mares at the yard EVER have it even when they are in season.
At its worst its taken the hair off under her tail. Is it ok to be washing the area constantly I worry this will make her sore but at the same time its impossible to brush off completely and I cant leave it there.
Is this normal and is she ok?- had geldings 18yrs but this is the first mare-hence my ignorance
Sorry i did post this on another site but no reply, apologies to anyone who already read it before!
