Hi Ann, The crest still being hard is an indication that her diet needs to be tightened up so you may see a better result now that you're weighing her hay on a daily basis. Have you put a weight tape

Hi Ann, Would you be able to update your CH ? Also, is it correct yhat she is not on pergolide? Or I missed that? Is she still using red salt block? Etc. Thanks. -- Lorna in Eastern Ontario 2002

Hi Ann, Would it be possible for you to get pictures of Lolly added to your album? Body shots as well as pictures of her feet would be very helpful. To help you calculate the proper amount of hay we

I forgot to include: her crest is softening but is still firmer in the middle of her neck than I'd like. Her hair is so long it's hard to get a great sense for rib fat, but by my estimate I think

Many horses reject Prascend, which is another reason many of us ask our vets to prescribe compounded pergolide with flavoring like apple and molasses. -- Cass, Sonoma Co., CA 2012 ECIR Group

Hello, I am still trying to get some more weight off our pony. We discover about 6 weeks ago that our low sugar hay flakes were VERY inconsistent in weight and so she was getting more than 8lbs of

Hi Trudy, As I just mentioned in another message I'd rather syringe pergolide to make sure the horses are getting it in so that's less of a concern to me than the feeds you're using. TC Lite is not

Mandi, So glad you came here! I think i read your post on one of the FB hoof groups. This may seem very overwhelming and scary. All of us here have been in your spot. Breath! Being a trimmer, I

Hi Trisha, For the horses that won't eat it the easiest thing to do is put it in a 3cc syringe with some warm water to dissolve and then just dose them with it. IMO it's too important (and expensive)

Hi all. I have looked through the archives to search for Prascend administration strategies...still having trouble getting one of my horses to consume it consistently....any special search words I

Hi Trudy, Have you done blood work since last fall? I would repeat that, now that you’ve had Ani on pergolide awhile. It may we’ll be that 1 mg pergolide is not enough to control her PPID. And,

Ani is the one I have set up on this site. I had blood work done on all 3 of my Hanoverian mares because of my concerns about founder in the other 2. All of them are positive PPID and on pergolide.

Thank you, Dr. Kellon. In the meantime, I'll search "canagliflozin" on the site and brush up. -- Michele & Mosey IR, Feb 2019 Reno, NV,

Hi all! In an other post, i think lorna (but not sure) mentionned she did not gave commercial selenium sup but took selenium yeast directly from mad barn! so I took a look at my current supplement,

I only have the exact figures for his adiponectic levels from the first test currently. It was 0.37 and normal range is >3.2. Unfortunately the second test used different parameters (something about a

Since I am still new to balancing, I posted in the grads group to have others double-check my calculations for balancing an 1650lb, IR, retired, low maintenance category draft. A few of us are

I just wanted to share this with everyone, I know this comes up often. I have this saved. I know we’ve all been there at least once. thanks to dr K and dr. Garlinghouse for

2 years ago, with the coffin bones nearly ready to penetrate through the sole, I was given wise advice and instead of putting down my then 35'ish old horse I took my cue from him, and decided we would

Hi Mairi Do you have the actual numbers from the blood test results? The ‘normal’ range is actually a broad reference range and the upper end of this range (particularly insulin) often includes
