I know this is an old post but avoid second chance Horse Rescue Malta, horses are generally lame and some blind. Adopters are bullied and horses have been removed due to an “alledged breach of an illegal contract” some horses removed when the owner wasn’t there. Anyone who speaks out gets...
No that’s very true all it does is force vets back to muscle biopsies which often provide a false negative the hair sample at least provides the answer that the horse carries the gene from birth to death and of course this doesn’t say whether the gene is active or not
Why the two are not...
I do think ( no I’m not Paul for those who stupidly wrongly guessed I was, I’m not) he’s got this totally wrong he states that a peer review is just a bunch of papers if it was just a bunch of papers why hasn’t he submitted them!!
My other thought is he has cleverly patented his process so to...
Hi how many of you have had connemaras with hinders issues including SI problems
I’m seeing hock and stifle arthritis, bone cysts, demitis eg suspensory issues. Lameness
This is in young connies some have done a lot others not. Some are older but done a lot
I’m only interested in connies and...
I have no desire to enlighten you but more than qualified and experienced. Not everyone in your closed group agrees with you. However it’s a very free country and fortunately I and others are looking at the welfare of our animals not shutting the book and letting them suffer
I don’t do ginger...
I totally disagree if that was the case the covid vaccine would have had to be before it was used and it wasn’t You can peer review a complex process just like that. Anyway we are talking to brick walls. Watch this space
I will leave it there as we will never agree. You are obviously working to BEVA rules and regulations and that has to be accepted. Even my VET practice thinks there is mileage in the dna test results but have to work within BEVA rules. They are at least open minded
Yes there are lots of unknown...
On
On the contrary you are dismissive of another view point and have stated openly that you will not accept the commercial companies results without peer review
I’ve explained how complicated muscle disease is in horses. Yes it’s published but not peer reviewed. If in research we waited for...
Pssm1 is not related to mim pssm2 as was
I will repeat the research by equisec shows the link however Valberg could not find the link. Why because they never worked together on the same section of horses. You have a vet examining healthy not symptomatic horses who’s muscles showed no issues...
Do you actually understand how complex the process is. Pssm1 was straight forwards even if Valberg has confused Mim with pssm2. We are talking about 6 variants not one and there are two recently discovered new ones along with a load of unknown ones. With anything even humans there are...
