New to the mini world. Bought a grulla stallion, 3yrs old recently from a person who couldn't pay the vet bill. He is anemic. He was skinny and lethargic when I got him. She had just used Ivermectin that day on him so I didn't worm him. Took him home, fattened him up, longed him, and now he is pot-bellied. I took him to the vet for shots and she says he isn't fat, he is just right. How can this be? His pot belly is enourmous and his blanky won't fit. What should I do? I was hoping for a sleek, skinny mini. He is 28.5". Is he wormy, poorly fed, or just fat? (yes, that is a dog collar in the pic. He has an abcess on his nose that is currently being treated by a vet)
