Anyone had any experience with these?
What made you believe your horse had them?
What proven treatments you used to combat them?
I basically have an ex racer that windsucks, hes never held great condition or weight and he toe drags. Back in the summer I had him scoped and he had nothing in terms of ulcers so no treatment prescribed.
I have recently had vet out to examine toe drag completely sound after flexion however, my vet was concerned with his dull coat and condition. We took blood and tested his liver and for tapeworm.
Bloods and liver pretty much clear but my vet advised to feed milk thistle and tapeworm was moderate so I wormed for this. I have also decided to change his feed from Simple Systems to Pure feeds, just changed today so will record if/or any progress.
My thoughts are could he possible have hindgut ulcers and if so what is the most PROVEN effective way to deal with them?
Thank you
