Question # 38: I have an older tb (about 9) that was a rescue we were trying to get weight on earlier this spring. Finally started working him for a couple months - just basic dressage walk and trot and tiny bit of canter both on lunge and undersaddle.

Well he coliced middle of June and lost a ton of weight. So I haven't been riding him, but think that he has enough weight on him to start again probably beginning of September. So how do you recommend restarting him? Like a month of just walking/hacking undersaddle? Then back to some basic walk and trot dressage work? (Sarah)
