Hi, I'm going to go off track slightly. My 20yr old tb just finished her eventing season. The time has come round again and she is dropping weight. All through summer she lives out at night and in few hrs during the day. She has been carrying plenty of weight. Every winter she drops weight. It's...

My mare has been on regumate for two weeks now. She is a fussy feeder normally to the point i have to water bute down and give it to her via a syringe if she has to have it. She used to do the trick of holding the contents in her mouth for minutes, i walk away and she would spit it all out. I...

Thanks Touchwood , She had oxytocin after insemination which did make expel alot of the fluid, but it came back. My vet did say she needs a bit of a stay at the practice so they can agressively treat it, he did mention flushing her out and possibly stiching her. I will let you now how it goes...

Hi sorry i dont think i wrote it write. On the 17 day scan after insemination she had a lot of pooling still even though she had cytotoxin and antibiotics. The vet is a specialist from Bell Equine, and wanted my mare to have a full season to see if it would settle her " agressive uterous" along...

My mare was inseminated in April, but didnt take. She came back into season on 9th May, came out on 14th. Vet decided not to inseminate then as she needs agressive treatment due to pooling in her uterus, going through another season might assist expelling any fluid left. Went to yard today and...

yes that video was stomach churning made me very angry and upset, but i have never seen anything that awlful before and i often work along side the RSPCA. I hope a custodial sentence is passed on all the family. Its the only way the courts can show they take animal welfare seriously I cant see...

Have a look at Coronado Son. Oldenburg AES.( sorry he is grey) he is 6 yrs old. His lines are all SJ, Coronado, Corrado, Cor De La Breyere, Ramiro Z. I think the oldest progeny are a year old now. Found at Home Farm Stud, Hartpury College

My mare is being AI tommorow (21st) at home. I did get her CEM and EVA because she has had foal prior to me buying her in Ireland many years agao, and worried she might carry an infection. It doesnt cost alot and you never know whats going on inside. My mare is having everything at home. She...

Im a first time breeder this year, the same thing for me. My mare coming to the end of competion life, and would like another like her with a bit more bone. I have choosen Coronado Son. He is a young stallion but has very good jumping lines, hopefully something of a future star. The fees are...

Thanks. My farrier has checked everything he was out again yesterday and proded about but she really didnt react to anything he was doing. He has been shoeing her for 12yrs, nothing like this has happened. We havnt gone down the pad route before as we have never had the need to put them on. Vet...

My mare did hers two years ago, after bolting with me down a narrow woodland path after being spooked. I cold hosed straight away and bandaged religously. she was scanned then box rested for 3 months. After third month re scanned all well knitted together, though leaving tissue damage. the pain...

Thanks for that. I thought he would of found something by now. Thats why i am getting concerned. She has no other problems further up the leg, no lumps, bumps or swellings. Her hooves are of even temperature aswell. I havnt a clue wats going on, if only horses could speak

About 10 days ago my mare had a new set of shoes on. Within 24hrs i lunged her in the school and she came up lame. Immediately contacted my farrier who said , leave it a few days, i might of shod her tight. He came back a few days later took the front shoes off and said couldnt find anything...

My mare two years ago did her check ligament, after she bolted with me in some woods( one and only time she every done it) My vet said they can reoccur in older horses and if not given enough time to heal and a rigid fittening programme isnt adhered to. Luckly she has been fine, had to give up...
