Thank you. We will do the complete metabolic panel with Cornell. I will look into the Rescue Remedy. Thanks -- Alison KY

Cass, Great information. Thank you so much! -- Jennifer Grossi Charlevoix,

Hi Amy, Could you please add your photo link to your signature? https://ecir.groups.io/g/CaseHistory/album?id=264439 (if you need help with that please let us know). If you can add pictures of her

Hi Daisy, I've added the mark-ups to Tiko's album: https://ecir.groups.io/g/CaseHistory/album?id=90099&p=Created,,,20,2,0,0 Unfortunately, there have been no changes made to the trim since the reads

Lavinia, thank you so much for your input! I thought for sure because her palmar angle was so high that the toe of the coffin bone was poking and hurting. Glad to hear that is not the case and we can

I also uploaded some radiographs from 2019 as well as a picture from her trimming from last week (that was 7 weeks of growth!!) https://ecir.groups.io/g/CaseHistory/album?id=264439 Thank you !! --

Sherry, thanks for the additional info and the references. I just talked with our vet, but the info she had limited the dosage to 50 mg/Kg/day, so I'll send her your references as well as this one I

I have been mainly a lurker on this group for a long time. I joined initially for my PPID horse in 2006. He passed away in 2015 and then in 2018 my mini pony (Mater) had been diagnosed with IR. I

Hi Jackie, Per those rads, there was NO heel that needed to come down - her bony column was in good alignment at that time. Her heels appear to have been somewhat underrun, but that is a different

Hi Jackie, A couple of things for you to consider regarding feeding. If Megan's ideal weight is truly 900lbs (I suspect that at 13.3 it may be less) she should be eating no more than 18lbs a day

Sherry, thanks for your reply! Today, Megan is slightly overweight at about 940 lbs, probably around a BCS of 6 (I'd need to go through it thoroughly). I've cut her alfalfa slowly back the last couple

Cheryl, My understanding from the group's general experience that you want to keep starch at 4% or less. Some horses can tolerate 6 % some cannot handle 4% . Try to find hay that is native grass,

Agree on the approach and greatly appreciate the perspectives on moving. My gut says the same thing and initially he'd be stalled with a solo turnout available. It's more of a sandy base so hopefully

Hi Laura, If he's up more than he's down I'd plan on moving him and making sure he has his boots on and take the drive slowly so as not to throw him off balance. I would not hand walk him unless you

Hi Jackie, Looking at your CH Megan is still overweight, is that correct? Is she still being fed alfalfa and Coolstance now? Given her elevated insulin numbers if she is still being fed both of those

That's a tough question, I hope you'll hear from others on it, too. If he was mine, as soon as the digital pulses normalized, I'd move him. In padded boots. One hour is not long and you can drive

Good day all: As new hay is being cut here already, a question. What would be the MAXIMUM acceptable starch level in hay with an ESC and starch combined at 10% or less. I believe I read some where

Unfortunately, I’ve asked about the hot wire and/or another fencing type already, but it’s not been met with much interest — hence the plan to move. It’s hard to find a place with a large

Hi Donna, I have always been told by my horse's vets, even the current one, to dose him 20 - 22 pills 2x per day. So that's probably where you got the higher number. -- Joy and Willie
