Don’t forget your camera. It’ll
be as pretty as a picture.
Every horse has six
teeth above and below.
Before three years old he
sheds his middle teeth; at
three he sheds one more
on either side of the
central tooth; at four he
sheds two corner and last
of the fore teeth. Between
four and five, the horse
cuts the under tusks; at
five will cut the upper
tusks, at which time his
mouth will be complete.
At six years, the grooves
and hollows begin to fill
up a little; at seven the
grooves will be well-nigh
filled, except the corner
teeth, leaving little brown
spots where the dark
brown hollows formerly
were. At eight the whole
of the hollows and grooves
are filled up. At nine there
is very often seen a small
bill to the outside corner
teeth; the point of the
tusk is worn off, and the
part that was concave
begins to fill up and
become rounding; the
squares of the central
teeth begin to disappear,
and the gums leave them
small and narrow at the
top.
