Swolen Glands

[jcberry]

I posted about this a few weeks back with Oscar doing this...





had vet out to give him a flu and tet jab on Friday, she tols us it looked like he had swollen Glands. She told us what TO do about it (keep and eye on him, plenty of water etc..) but didnt tell us what NOT to do. So has anyone ever come across this? I heard, it is not good to work in an outline whilst they are swollen, the thing is, in our lessons, we are working on getting him into an outline.. should we stop this, or just warn our Instructor? Any advice greatly apreiciated

If he's been doing it a few weeks I'd be thinking about having an endoscope to find out if there is anything going on internally. It almost looks like he is trying to clear something.

Sparks glands have been up for a week now (hers always come up when the grass starts to grow). I tend to just work her long and low and not ask for too much flexsion when her glands are up. Just warn your instructor, then he/she can adapt the lesson.
