Hay, Kay, I know what you mean about that look your Pandora gave you! Now Star just kicks as if at a fly instead of lifing her belly. "Get away from me you pest!" Ah well, we'll keep trying until we

Hi Chris - Where in CA are you located? I'm in the Davis area. Belly lifts and running your fingers up from her belly to her back would be great! If you know someone with any TTEAM background they

Well, I am here to tell you, the Belly lift theory didn't work on Pandora Mule today. She turned around and looked at me like, "Now what is it you want me to do? Just tell me, don't do that

Hi, For Darby's tummy tucks I tickle her tummy about half way between her udders and elbows, sometimes you have to search for the correct spot and use more pressure. Also, for her hind end I take her

Hi Robin! I have some info for you: - Some online pharmacies with good prices are: drugstore.com, drugemporium.com, familymed.com, RxUSA.com, eckerd.com. I don't know if they all will work with vet

Hi Kay Two Mules! (forgive the familiarity, but it sounds good, doesn't it?) - I live on the "upstate" side of Ithaca, near Canandaigue Lake, not nearly such a pretty place as Corning, but it's a

Hi! I had the same trouble with getting my mare to do "belly lifts"- this may help: if you can find the "v" on the underside of the belly, just behind the girth area, where the muscles seem to

Hi, if your horse is sore and you think it might be because of standing "weird" to alleviate foot pain you might want to consider a chiropractor. I know that my mare was just adjusted because I knew

Hi Paula - I think there is little guidelines on the use of permax and there are many thoughts out there on its use. My first vet had me start at .75gm/day and then I was to decrease to .25gm/day

Jackie, My gelding foundered 2 years ago. After he was to the point where he was off bute and I could start exercising him again we found that he was short strided-didn't want to push from behind.

I'll talk to Pandora Mule and get back to you. This would be funny, if it weren't so serious, wouldn't it? How does one get an equine in the "Halloween Cat? position?" Kay, who knows exactly what

Thanks for the feedback on Isoxuprine. I should clarify that when I'm monitoring Bug's pedal pulses, and find them to be a concern (which isn't often), I give a low dose of Isoxuprine for several days

Hi Paula, my Domino also takes isoxuprine whenever he's having foot problems...since March this time around. I monitor his digital pulse closely and adjust the bute accordingly, but keep the

I know many have alread said it, but I'd like to reiterate that this group is SUCH a wonderful resource for those of us dealing with Cushings! As far as a vet who won't write a prescription is

I had an interesting talk with Heather at BET Labs yesterday. My vet drew blood for a Cushing's panel about 9 days back, and I was impatient for the results (her office was closed yesterday). Heather

No chance that he's having a bout of azortoria/tying up, is there? I assume NOT if the vets have looked at him... but mentioning just in case.. Robin Desert Springs Sport

I am not sure it is the same, but I do know that many times I have seen Pandora Mule lift those back feet up to knee level, hold them, then put them down. To someone who didn't know her, it would

When he had the laminitis episode, he was put on Isoxuprine 21 days 2X per day, then 14 days 1X per day, then 7 days every other day. Also Bute 2 gm per day for 5 days and 2 days off. And aspirin

Jeri, I wish I had some magic words for your vet. My vet did not hesitate when I asked for a prescription for cypro. I'm using the liquid through Prescription Specialties. She did caution me about

V. Clemons - I second Robin's request - what online pharmacy are you using and what are they charging for the Permax? I'm now up to 1.25gm/day and, at my present price, that's $5/day! Take care,
