Re: RC: Does Not Lie Down

["Alison Dunn" <alcritters@hotmail.com>]

<<The not lying down is not in and of itself a concern in an adult horse, 
since it is quite normal for them to sleep on their feet.>>

I heard from somewhere that horses do not get their REM sleep unless they 
lie down.  Is this not true?  (Both that horses do REM sleep, and to get it 
they have to lie down.)
