I had the dentist out to Grady yesterday for a general check up and it would appear that he still has his wolf teeth.
Being a dumb ass I didn't know that this was a problem so my nice vet explained the situation to me.
I decided to have them taken out, even though the previous owners had had them ground down flat with the gum, I was warned that cos of his age they were probably rooted in there good and proper and it could get messy and was unlikely that they were causing any problem but untill we tried we'd not know.
Turns out the vet hardly had to touch them and they came straight out, which is a good indication that they could have been causing him alot of pain and in turn could be a reason for some of his bad behaviour (fingers crossed)
What sort of behaviour problems/syptoms could painful wolf teeth cause them and has anyone seen a dramatic difference in their horses since having them removed.
