HAS ANYONE EVERY SEEN A HORSE AFFECTED BY HERDA? It has been linked to the Poco Bueno lines and they suspect beyone maybe to Zanaton. They are comparing it to the Impressive line, but not as populated or prominant. I have Poco Bueno several times, I am not worried, but just curious if anyone has every seen it or heard of it? It is usually diagnosed before three years of age from what I have read. Foundation breeders, I think, are conscious as to not produce where the disease could develope and maintain the disease so as to not spread it's potential but rather contain it. Any idea?

No, honestly I've seen pics of horses with it, but never personally seen one.
Most are euthanized once affected. Usually shows up during saddle breaking, when the skin is under serious stress.

Horses should not be treated as people. They should be respected for who they are and what they are capable of doing!
