Hi Heather, Your x-rays show toes that are still too long on both feet. If you'd like help with trimming please take and post a full set of hoof photos as outlined in the Wiki

Hi Chris, Perhaps you missed my answer from yesterday: Re: Please Review- New Test Results (groups.io) but 1000% agree with Maxine that 1 - your vet is wrong, 2 - lowering the dose when he's not

Hi Dr. Kellon, Actually I would greatly appreciate any advice you can provide on trim. Sorry if my previous note implied I will not do what needs to be done to provide the best case for Callisto. Of

What's the best way to take a hay sample without a hay probe? I'd rather not have to completely cut open the bales to do it. Just wondering what other people have done? -- Helene A. in BC 2021 Photo

Hi Ed, If you’re going to test your pasture, you should do it now while the horses are ‘eating’ it. Your sample won’t be green and lush, but most likely brown and full of roots. That’s

Thank you again for all the help and encouragement! I stopped isoxuprine following Dr. Kellon's recommendation and figured out a way to feed the double dose of PQ so he's been getting 4 scoops a day

Ok, I just got off the phone with my vet. I am not sure what to think. I would love it if Dr. Kellon could take a look at these results AND at what my vet is recommending. I like my vet but he has

Hi, Rebecca. Cass here. I need to ask you, please, to post only from one single identity/email address. You and I spent some effort getting your information in place for Rebecca.speed@.... If you

Hi Maria I think the problem is that the safety of high fat feeding has not been studied. The ECIR recommendation for 4% fat or less in the diet comes from analysis of the equine's evolutionary diet.
