I tried ranitidine and omeprazole early on but had no effect on him that I could see.

Hi, I had tried lots and lots of different foods/medicines/supplements but not those two. I enquired about the alpengrun mash but as my hubby is out of work I just could not afford any extra. In the end he was having enough food to feed 3 horses but still not putting on weight and still shaky...

Thank-you so much, this sounds like my boy. I took him off alfalfa and beet. The mash he now has is Soya hulls and Soya oil - which I'm hoping will work for him and not another one to avoid!. He has Vit E added too. Do you think it is the magnesium that helped yours? Which amino acid...

Oh, was looking at Pavo Slobbermash but have seen a Haven Slobber Mash too! Which one do you feed?

Just had a look - it seems quite high in starch?

It's funny you should put that as I just started this week on mixing Sodium Bicarbonate with oil in his 3 feeds (about a tablespoon) as well as the Equishure for now. He usually eats anything but doesn't like the taste of it but it is slowing his eating down which is a plus. I think he is...

I did ask the vet about it right at the beginning but he dismissed it saying he only saw it in draught breeds and not Andalusians. But I have put him on a high oil diet and restricted grazing which should help?

Thanks. I looked on there and contacted a few places but no=one actually stocked the Pink Mash! I ordered it online with a company and then they never processed my order or replied to my emails enquiring about it! I then emailed Keyflow and someone replied saying they passed it on to someone...

Thank-you. I wanted to feed Pink Mash but have had problems getting hold of it and the company never got back to me when I asked about suppliers! He has his teeth done every 6 months and recently wormed with Pramox. I haven't done a Cushings test but may do now it's free. How long did it...

Just really wanted to hear of other people's experience of Hindgut Acidosis or putting weight on a horse that is/has been poorly. Forgot to say that he is 21 years old. x

I got my PRE Stallion 2 years ago on LWVB and quickly saw that he windsucked and was girthy. I assumed ulcers and started the long and expensive journey of trying to find a solution (knowing that it could be caused by other pain/stress). He is the most gentle and genuine horse I have ever...
