I live in Florida and my gelding gets diarrhea. here i is usually sand in his intestines. 1 cup metamucil and 1 cup oil added to his feed 2 time a day until resolved. Usually a week.
Good luck.
Hi, Jennifer:
This can be a difficult issue to resolve. I have a mare who has this problem from time to time, but now I usually can sort out what cauasd it (BTW, I've known geldings to have the problem too). When I first got this mare she had this…
Thanks so much Jennifer! I've tried giving her the FastTrack probiotics as well, but that hasn't helped either. In my research, I read of horses who've had diarrhea for years! ugh! I would never let it go that long--how awful!
Your mare is so pretty... she matches your coffee cup. I am so proud of you for taking a sample to the vet..... I was thinking a tumor or a blockage that was causing the poop to be runny. I only have ever seen diarrhia when Oliver, my colt was a wee…
Yes I have heard of it, and yes one year I tried it. I only used it on their legs, just in case it could irritate their eyes or they would ingest it if on their bodies. I know they itch their legs too but I did want to try it to see if I could see a…
I have heard of WD 40 being used for many different things but NEVER on horses for flies. Aside from the chemicals alone I can't imagine how something as a lubricant could be used to keep flies away. One person I know uses a home mixture of tea tree…
This photo is soooooo cute!!!!
Shedding season isn't a fun time of year, and it's worse for some horses than others, especially those prone to having dry skin or have poor diets. Here's some tips that can helping in reducing dry skin and dull coat issues.
Don't over bathe your h…
Tea Tree Oil is a great solution and is gaining a wonderful following.
The brand i know about is Healing Tree Brand and they are a very reputable company run by a vet.
Hope that helps.

It is interesting that you mention the horses drank out of the goldfish bucket over the clean buckets. At our barn some of the horses prefered the fishy tank water and others prefered their nice clean water buckets. Not unlike people. Just yesterday…
In the cases I've seen they used electric water heaters so the water tanks did not totally freeze. Regular goldfish were still alive and doing well in the spring. I did see a tank at someone elses barn that looked like they'd bought the fancy gold-f…
what about in the winter when it freezes solid?
Wow. I have never heard of using gold fish to clean troughs before. Interesting concept.
Dontcha wish your girlfriend was Hot like me? Dontcha?!
Good reminder Shirley--I noticed my hubby doing this with the bag that they came in and it finally donned on my why.

Hi Jocelyn,
I too just started Dressage recently, and I have to say, with a good horse and instructor, Dressage is a blast! So good choice. :)
As others have said, we'd need to know what you're doing with your horse now, and past experience to give…
Thanks Karen....have a great day!!
The late medieval nobility turned dressage into a sport by giving public demonstrations of "horse ballets" to wow the commoners during public celebrations. They would do airs above the ground as well as movements on the ground. The late medieval kni…
Special thanks to Wendy Christoff for submitting this to DC's Communications Committee.
There are horses that do not think the little fences are worth worrying about.
Are you lungeing him over the jumps just in a cavesson, or are you using side reins too? Do you lunge over jumps with a saddle on? Do not use side reins (I am not saying…
Where did I state that medival dressage was humane and correct?
I have stipulated that the SRS under Podhajsky presented dressage more correctly.
I know who Kottas is and he is not a horseman!
Podhajsky was a horseman and even General Patton was a h…
