Another thing that bothers me about this co-dependency is it was latent, and we may have never uncovered it without the move. It's almost like waking up in the morning and finding your horse has been switched. Maybe he needs a pet husky (thanks Toy)!!
The challenge ahead is to overcome it - if that is achievable. By the sound of others, it'll take time and stamina...but then horses weren't meant to be easy (were they???)
