About a month ago I noticed two areas on my horses hind legs that were “shedding” out rapidly with dark specks at the ends of the hair (he’s grey so it’s easy to see the black ends). I thought it may be rain rot and treated as such, but it hasn’t overly improved. Treated with anti-fungal sprays as well as washing. I’ve also just noticed that this is on all 4 of his legs in varying spots. It’s not bumpy or rough, just the hair pulls out easily with the mentioned dark ends. Not all hair is coming out like this, but it is leaving his remainder hair very thin.
He also doesn’t seem bothered by it. Not sensitive or itchy or bothered by me brushing it out. He gets groomed daily but it wasn’t something easily noticeable. Have had him 7 years and he’s never had anything like this.
My vet is out Thursday for dentals and I’ll ask about it then, just wondering what people thought it may be?
