Dr Kellon Per my vets advice - I have been giving Vandy 1/2 tab Prascend since June 18. She has also been on a Bute trial since then - starting with 2g twice/day & now down to 1g at nite only. She res

Sherry I was actually asking why use NSC for one substance and ESC & starch for another? I don’t like the starch being that high in the Lite feed either. I dont promote using it. Hmmm… 8.7% in the Sen

Kirsten Can you tell me why you use NSC for feeds but not for hay? Triple Crown gives the ESC + starch numbers for their feeds. The Senior, Senior Gold & the Lite are all less than 10% ESC + starch. S

Laurie My horse immediately starts salivating when I clean her buckets with bleach. She wants to lick the ground where I dump the cleaning/bleach water. Ever heard of that? Mary & Vandy

What’s the reason for using “compounded” pergolide vs Prascend? Mary & Vandy

Hey Martha Thanks for taking the time to try to explain all this to me. I have sooo many questions. And I find sooo many conflicting answers. Use Metformin. No - don’t use Metformin. Prascend works. D

Dr Kellon I won’t ignore her IR/PPID. I’m trying to understand it. And trying to figure out the best course of treatment for her at her age. If a lameness exam with nerve blocks shows pain in her legs

Thanks, Maxine, for reminding me. I did that on a pair of her riding boots - mainly for better traction at the time. I am going out right now to do it for the Gloves she is using for turn out. It sure

Dr Kellon I thought that I had read that Bute did not give relief for endocrinopathic laminitis & she has always gotten relief from a couple days on 1-1 1/2g twice/day of Bute. She was on Previcox 57m

Dr Kellon Since Vandy won’t eat the pellets, you said to syringe the Phyto-Quench. That means I now have to syringe 1cup of liquid PQ 2Xday. That stuff is thick & gritty when I add water. And Vandy ha

Hey sherry Im completely on board with the feed business. I purchased 2 50lb bags of Stabul 1 fenugreek feed & 4 50lb bags of TC Timothy Balance cubes for her. And the 5lb bucket of Phyto-Quench. But…

Hi Sherry I understand that Vandy should be consuming about 19 lbs total feed. She’s never been a big eater. I couldn’t get her to eat more than 4lbs of Timothy pellets a day when she was normal! And

Hi Kirsten. Thanks for the suggestion on the TC cubes. I see you are in Canada. We are in south Louisiana. It’s very hot here & warm mashes are only fed during the winter! Maybe a cube popsicle would

Dr. Kellon, So if I stop the TC/Standlee products - That means she only has hay and beet pulp? I stopped the PQ this past Sat/Sun - gave Bute instead. I will start PQ again today at 1 scoop/day. How m

Thank you, Dr Kellon, for looking over Vandys history again. I added a few more hoof pics & xrays to our case history to help. She is due for another bi weekly trim but it wouldn’t be much to remove.

Can you add videos of your horse to your account?

To Sherry & Dr Kellon Has she even been on Prascend long enough to know if one pill is the right dose or not? Something isn’t being controlled for sure! I wonder if I should have ever had her tested.

Another day… not improving at all… Vandy has been on Phyto-Quench since June 5 - that’s 5 days now. No improvement. In fact, she can hardly walk. Her legs shake when she tries. She has NEVER been this

Hey everyone I’m beginning to get concerned. Vandy is not eating much at all. To the point that she has gone from having 4-6 poops a nite to only 1-2. Daytime only 1-2 also. She’s been on the APF from

Dr Kellon Do I get the Phyto-Quench with or without the Devils Claw?
