I know this is a very old thread, but, did you get to the bottom of these episodes? My mare had abnormal ovaries and were removed last summer, different horse straight away, but showed season signs all summer and autumn, but manageable, just subtle signs, short weeing and off food, happened...

Thanks, she’s not covered for vet fees ��*♀️ If treating doesn’t work then we’ll just get it removed, she’ll never be a competition or ridden pony, just don’t want her suffering.

Has anyone had any experience with a deep eye injury probably caused by a bang to it. It was looking ok yesterday but swollen up today, no discharge though, the eye is white and can just see the pupil through the white, treating as per the vet but it might need to be removed. Has anyone had an...

I know this is a very old thread, but I am going through much the same sinario at the moment and would like to know how the mare is doing now. I'm not far off getting my mare booked in to get hers removed.

My mare grumbles along sound one day lame the next for months then eventually a mega abscess will burst through, normally after she has pulled a shoe. I don't know where about in the country you are but the ground has been very hard here, could be a bruise that is turning into an abscess? Hope...

Thanks for the replies I got the vet report today he says I found the mare to be in early to mid oestrous with marked uterine oedema. Both ovaries were enlarged with multiple follicles, with no obvious dominant follicle yet present. In my opinion her ovaries were over active for the time of...

Brief history - 8 yo mare, tad grumpy in her stable most of the time, gets really cuddly when in season, lovely to ride until in season, just doesn't want to know and will do anything to get you off. Last July I gave up on all the herbal stuff and put her onto regumate - different horse...

i am on the look out for an equitrek either the trail, space or show but a L model, just wondering if there is any age that i should avoid, someone said that ones pre 2007 should be avoided but wasn't 100% sure - i have a limited budget so can't afford a new one thanks

my jeep is dead and we are thinking on selling the horsebox and getting a trailer and a bigger jeep, to be practical we are thinking along the lines of a pick up which makes are good for towing and which should we avoid

she is back home, looks like it was encysted red worms i do worm counts and for reasons of my own last year i didn't worm she had been through a fair bit last winter so thought more drugs in her system wasnt a good idea and since all her counts had been low i decided not to worm in spring -...

my 3yo is down in Weipers in Glasgow just now with a high temp & has low white blood cells they are not 100% sure what is up with her i know she is in the right place i have a lot of faith in the vets there but was wondering if anyone has had any experience with the above symptoms she was a...

i really struggled with this too but for weeks and weeks when doing them i took my sturipps away and put on a balance strap and held on to that and used my seat, worked a treat and the more i did like this the more my seat got better and stronger and he now normally does quite good ones but i...
