Low selenium

My 22 yr old Welsh driving pony has tested very low in selenium. He's on a regimen of vitamins from the vet although I ran out for a few weeks, he's on them again. Would that be a reason for his laziness? I want to rule out physical problems before deciding it's an attitude. He's more forward and straighter going home than leaving the barn. Thanks for any help, Sherry

In the mean time pony's been unused all winter. Am going to take him to a new place to begin fitting him up. Maybe he's bored with the same old roads. Also will get his blood work done again to see if his levels are stable.
