Ah, this is so confusing to my old brain! I don't even want to entertain the idea of Ivokana for my mare but perhaps Alcar or L-carniine (both available at bulksupplements.com -which would be better?)

Dr. K. Do you think that these magnetic pastern wraps (or far infrared wraps) would be of any comfort to a DSLD mare?

Had my mare on Equithrive Flex and then on Equithrive Joint for 2 years (2014-2015). Did not see that it did anything at all.

Tetanus vaccines are available as sole ingredient. The thinking is now that once every 3 years is good enough. Years ago I questioned my vet as to why it was recommended annually when human recommenda
