Eye Problems

Hey all. Just wanted to update and let everyone know that Woody's eye has been producing an excessive amount of "eye boogers" (I don't know the correct term, haha). I have been hot compressing it three times daily and rinsed it out with a Clear Eyes solution, but they kept coming back. My mom contacted the Virginia Tech Vets and they came out when I was at work on Monday. They cleared his tear duct because it was blocked (causing the drainage to come out the corner of his eye in "eye booger" form) and ordered us to keep a fly mask on him during the day. They said it could be allergies, or that he has had too much sugar intake lately. Of course, they then commented on his and Teddy's weight saying they were very obese. I understand they are professionals and I do know that Woody is not at the finish line yet, but I feel the need to defend him. He has lost SO much weight since I have owned him. Here is the proof.
As you can see, his body shape and weight and everything has changed. He is getting Equine Sugar Balance in his feed in the morning, and we are going to cut down on the amount of oats and sunflower seeds we mix it with. That combined with a very limited amount of treats I will be feeding a day, and some excercises I will be playing with will hopefully help him trim down some more before the clinic in the end of September. He HAS to go back to camp skinnier than he was at the beginning of the summer or else we will not live it down with Harry and the other participants.
As for Teddy, I am working on his weight, too. We have been playing together and his leading and following a feel has gotten SO much better. He is trotting and cantering online, and he is also getting a dose of the "fat food" that Woody gets in the morning as well. He has slimmed down a bit, and Mom has ordered a grazing muzzle for him to use sometimes.
I have not had the chance to play with Woody much since my last post, but soon I hope to have a Liberty session with him because we haven't had one of those in a long while. Once our round pen is mowed and ready, I will be doing more Liberty and Carrot Stick riding with him (in preparation for our L2 Freestyle Audition). Keep you posted!
