Reckon it sounds like she might be better off without her hormones! Hope you can claim on your insurance? My mares op came to just under £3000!
Good luck!
Oh boy! Did she have problems! In the 5 years that I have owned her she had always been 'mareish' when she was in season, but in the last year or so, she had turned into a DINOSAUR! Very stallion like behaviour, downright dangerous at times. My vet put her on Regumate in Aug, but it didn't help...
My mare had a bi-lateral ovariectomy about 4 months ago. she had tumours in both ovaries. The op went well, and she was a model patient! She was heavily sedated, and both ovaries removed with her standing up, by laparoscopy. she was in hospital for 4 days after the op, and then 3 weeks partial...
My mare is exactly the same... I have resorted to putting a balance strap on my saddle. It is great to have something to grab if your horse decides to spook and spin at the same time!
I wonder if there is anyone out there who knows what is happening with the Arthur Kottas online academy? I haven't been able to log on to it for ages, and would love to hear from anyone who has any info on this!
Thanks!
