Hi Jess, I bought this for my horses, seemed the best protein levels & quality / price I could find. I calculated their dose from the NRC diet calc balancing so can't comment on that

Hi there, A PPID volunteer has kindly suggested whey protein isolate, as my boy's protein levels seem to be on the low end of normal (blood results in my photo album) and he is underweight/struggling

Please read Comments section in Case History for 5/2/17 for more complete details behind hock injection inquiry. -- Robyn & Toons North Bay, CA April

Recent Hock X-rays revealed changes to a lip that was forming in Toon's hock a few years back. It appears to have grown and was causing inflammation in the RH hock. Because Toons has experienced

Hi, Really?! Wow thank you for that, I pretty much look at her feet in despair & think maybe just this, or that, but just a little. I will keep up the little & often as I feel safer & it is ok from

Thank you. When I have your markups i can get him trimmed... do you have a timeframe so I can schedule my farrier? For now I have him wearing the boots in his stall/padlock just getting used to

Karen, If the boots fit well now, as soon as you bring Luke's toes back they will be too large. It makes for a conundrum. You might want to consider waiting until after he has his trim done to fit

Thank you Lavinia, i want to have my farrier shorten the toes as you and the vet said; do you know a timeframe you can do the markup photos as I'd like them as a guide...? I know how busy you are.

Thank you, Lavinia. I will post updated pictures of his hoof on Monday as well as the DP xray. Thank you again! P.S: Do you ever visit Central Oregon?? :) -- Stephanie & King October

What Lavinia said! You are doing a stellar job, and are to be congratulated. -- Jaini Clougher (BSc,BVSc) Merlin (over the bridge) ,Maggie,Gypsy, Ranger BC 09 ECIR

Hi Stephanie, Here's some info on RLP in the files: https://ecir.groups.io/g/main/files/Regional%20Limb%20Perfusion It can be done in the barn. All of that excess hoof needs to come off asap

Hi Becky, You're doing a great job - much better than what the farrier was doing so pat yourself on the back, take a deep breath and savor that for a few moments. The proof is in April's demeanor -

Hi, I have uploaded pics of April's feet today. It is 3 weeks since farrier came & I am now alone (apart from this group) in her hoof care. On the plus side she is moving well, in less discomfort &

Hi Lavinia and Dr. K, Lavinia - no, he was not standing completely horizontal/squarely to the ground. He does not want to put his foot completely horizontal on the ground, and I'm not sure if it is

Thank you! Will contact trimmer after you have a chance to do the mark ups. -- Sherry & Pepper, August 2015, No. Calif Case History:

Hi Sherry, Those were some good changes. LF toe needs to com back a touch more, RF more. RF has the hoof capsule twisting toward the inside from push of the lateral heel being run further forward

Hi Stephanie, There is a lot of excess foot here - both toe and hoof length in general. The vertical measurement line shows roughly where the hoof wall should be and everything to the left of that
