Seeking help for my pony
I used to weigh hay with a fishing scale after loading the hay in the largest size TubTrugs. I have since found that it is vastly easier to use a vintage platform scale, and to weigh the hay on that.

Bloodwork drawn once yearly?
My vet prescribes pergolide based on symptoms. She says, by looking the horses in the eye to see if they look like they do not feel well. Thus far, her diagnoses have been predictive of elevated ACTH.

Cat neck
I had a Norwegian Fjord who was a stallion until he was nine who had a bit of a cat neck developing after being somewhat overweight. He was insulin resistant, but not terribly so.
