Have you worked your way through the picky eaters list? Checked the list of safe feeds? I would look for LMF in your area over TC if you want to add another feed in but my first step would be

I am not using the nutrina. I tried Stabul and Hygain both she seemed to like and then stopped eating. Seems TC has another safe feed, i will get a bag of that. Do you have a brand of Devils Claw

Many horses will stop eating if they're in pain. If she'll eat the TBC with the timothy pellets I would use as little as possible of that as a taste tempter. If you are using the Nutrena feed still

Hi Linda, 1- We usually can correlate an insulin of over 80 with laminitis. Midnight's last reading was nowhere near that. If you wanted to know if she's experiencing laminitis now due to elevated

Hi Jen, Gosh, it’s been a long time but I think we treated the same length of time each incident. I just asked my daughter and she concurs. Back then the course of treatment was 30 days, orally.

I didn't try vinyl, Nicolle, but my hesitation would be its slippiness. And I only used the sheets when he was being trimmed(see pix) or rebandaged,because I didn't have the worry you have about

My laminitic mare is not eating much. She is on Omeprazole and Metformin (syringed with MOM). Blood work this Monday to see if Metformin is helping. She turns her nose to all pelleted feeds

Hi Martha - This is interesting. How long was the course of doxy each time? -- Jen McCabe Laytonsville, Maryland Joined 2022 + Odin (2010 BLM Mustang Gelding - IR, dx 2022), Bella (2008 BLM Mustang

Hi Lynn, Usually when horses become more painful on jiaogulan it is because abscesses are starting to mobilize now that circulation has improved. If you are really concerned you could try taking her

Understand. So We need to keep crap out of boots. :-) I'm looking over old pix (see Photo section) and can see that I used shipping boots a lot.The shipping boots covered the tops of whatever other

Hi Nicole, you just have to take it 1 day at a time. Don't worry about the future weather. You know she can move herself on the ground, and that she can stand up more easily now (yay!). So she is

Kirsten, Midnight is not laminitic but she is IR... last check was 40.84 in April. She's been barefoot all her life with really good trims but she's been stumbling a lot lately (21 now) so I bought

Nicolle I have nothing more to add care wise (your receiving the best) but wanted to give you a big pat on the back. I only wish you had as Martha says, someone to help you. This is hard for someone

Lorna, I usually take the pics before I do any clean-up so they are as they come out of the boots which of course get full of crap. -- Nicolle D in BC Canada

I concur with Jill and have found a much greater acceptance of compounded pergolide amount older vets because they have the experience of using it before Prascend became available. My vet wanted me

Again you could look at a liquid option such as Equimins Devils Claw Liquid Joint Supplement | Rideaway USA (rideawaystore.com) Thanks, Sherry and Scutch (and Scarlet over the bridge) EC Primary

Thank you all for the valuable advice and info. Especially the data on comparisons between CP and Prascend. I will be giving this to my vet. What a recurring nightmare for many of us... Amy in Va 2005

Oh, I feel for you, Nicolle! Is it possible to hire a vet tech to spell you with some of this? I can assure their regular job does not pay much (at least locally) so it wouldn’t be too hard to

It's actually acutely or even sub-clinically laminitic horses that shouldn't have shoes on. The shoes cause most of the horse's weight to be supported from the hoof wall, which is attached by the
