Also of broad interest, a remedy for dummy foal syndrome is a technique called the Madigan Squeeze where you put a rope around the foal’s chest to consrtict and try to mimic the birth canal. It acts like a reset for birth.

Fun fact you try to fix dummy foals by tying them up and pulling on them to get them to feel hunger.

But I’m 99% sure dummeh is just derived from “dummy” as a childish insult
