PINK! :yes::yes::yes:

Has he been dewormed with Zimectrin Gold lately?

Poor boy! I'd be making all his meals into a soupy mash and soaking his hay to allow him to eat more comfortably until he heals. :(

I know Farm and Fleet carries Cough Free, so that's definitely an option. :yes:

Because I prefer to try non-prescription things first, before pulling out the "big guns". :D :yes:

Alas, my mare's the only one with allergies! :lol:

I looked up the ingredients to Air Power..

"Honey, apple cider vinegar, aloe vera, ethyl alcohol, menthol, lemon juice, oil of eucalyptus."

I'd like to try something non-prescription first if I can help it, but I'll definitely keep that in mind, thanks for the info! :)

Interesting! That would definitely be cost efficient! :)

Is it a syrup or liquid? I loooooooooove Finish Line products! :D

I don't think my mare would object to getting pudding.. :lol::lol:

Good to know, I may have to try it! :) Do you have to feed a lot of it?

I'm researching it now, thanks!

Is it palatable? Miss diva mare is REALLY picky. :lol:

ZEV? Never heard of it. :) Where can I find it, got a link?

Vet says it's allergies. ;)

If I go for store bought, I like Bronco Gold or Ultrashield.

My mare has some respiratory allergies, that usually culminate in her coughing every time we ride. Using a long nose fly mask, or a nose net, does help, but doesn't eliminate the coughing...

Sounds like sweet itch to me. Keep her in a fly sheet with a neck and bellyband 24/7, fly mask, and fly boots if possible. Medicated baths (I like iodine-based ones, like Aloedine by Horseman's...

If the horse is anything but a very hard keeper, no grain. :)

If the horse absolutely NEEDS grain, a low NSC one like TC Senior would be a wise choice.

Also, ad lib forage, plenty of turnout...

I am so so sorry for your loss.

I do think the fact that the vet said they had never seen anything quite like what they found in the necropsy, and that they'll be doing a case study on it, is a...

Well thanks! :D

IT WORKED FOR MY HUSBAND'S FRIEND'S SISTER'S DOG'S WALKPINTALOOSABRED! :lol:

The summary:

ACK! Horse has ulcers? Treatment? :confused:

Ulcerguard! Gastroguard! :D

GG costs HOW MUCH?! :eek:

Alternatives to Ga$troguard?! :o

Sweet itch really sucks, doesn't it? :(

This is my mare's regimen to keep it at bay:

1. Flax seed, at least 1/3 cup. She's getting 1/2 cup at the moment. I feed it whole and unsoaked, works...

Like others said, just get the flavored, powdered bute and put it in a ziploc with the horse's grain, so all the barn folks have to do is just dump the baggy.

Any horse crazy teenage girls at your...

Neat! :D
