My latest hay analysis (not in Honey's case history yet) by my calculations requires 19g Ca, 7g P and 10g Mg. This is a lot of gritty material! I've tried adding Copra, beet pulp, peppermint flavoring

No Idea where "pain" came from in the above post.

Thank you. So Lavina---there is no advantage to exceeding the range? It seems well worth testing for those if us who have been supplementing for years with the pain rather steep cost of E.

Regarding the recommendation for the vitamin E supplementation...are we attempting to keep the level within the normal range or are we trying to bump it up beyond the upper limit?

Ok, thanks. I wanted to bump it up but I had the first season on pergolide jitters. When should I start titrating her up next season and what is a good starting point for dosage increase? Shoot for 2

Ok, I was able to get a little condition back but not much---kinda yoyo'ing. Teeth were fine, added a little alfalfa, tri-amino and upped her Orchard grass. TRH Stim (vet's choice) Pre: 20.8 pg/mL and

Thank you Nancy and Dr. Kellon.

Hi Frances--- Thanks for the thoughts---I didn't explain her situation very well. She gets anxious when taken from her paddock to anywhere else on the ranch---ie. drylot turnout, indoor arenas, outdoo

She was an alpha mare, at one time, but she hasn't been for a couple years now. In the herd I referred to she didn't have a well defined place, that I could identify. She was always on the periphery a

Dr Kellon, I think you're on to something here. When I had the vet out to do the TRH stim test---I asked her to look at Honey's eyes---her right in particular. I felt as though her heightened or anxio

one additional point to note---her excessive sweating is a 8 or 9 on a scale of 1-10. This is a relatively new symptom and one I don't quite know how to contend with----other than trying to bring her

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. She does lie down to sleep. She was previously in a herd of maybe 15 horses and honestly didn't have much of a role within the herd. She spent a fair amount o

Hi, Can you tell me what the "supplement before doxy" is? Thanks so much. I'm rooting for you and Jasper... Then his supplement before doxy that Dr Kellon reccomended,then 30 minutes after that doxy.
