A recent post dealt with passive floating of teeth by simply having a horse eat a few servings of clean, dry, hard corn to break off the thin, sharp hooks that can make eating painful. It certainly is not a replacement for needed medical attention. However, I have to say that after trying this regimen on an aged stallion who had begun dropping food as he ate, it seems to have helped.
A lot.
He no longer drops food and eats much faster. I am not a vet nor a scientist. I have to rely on what I observe. Based on that observation, it worked for this horse.
Of course, observing reality is not sufficient proof for some people. After all, everyone knows that a boar hog doesn't walk on a leash.

He also will not rub up against you like a 600lb kitten trying to get scratched...unless you have seen it...or worse..experienced it. -Lloyd
