Any ideas? I have my own and I have what the vet has said but looking for a wider view.
26yr old, currently being fittened slowly for summer fun, being ridden three times a week for about 1-2hours hacking, very hilly area, in W/T/C. Also hire a school couple of times a month for some schooling.
Vet described his left lung as sounding full of mucus. Was placed on a supplement that was expensive but did nothing, full blood panels done nothing out of the ordinary with than Cushings.
Out 8-4, in an airy outside stable, which is an old converted calving pen, so brick with a lined gate as a door, kept on dust extracted shavings and fed a wet sloppy feed.
It is after harder exercise he starts grunting and has a whistling wheeze, no COPD diagnosed after tests by the vet.
I am looking at supplements to try and help this since the vets did nothing I'm open to ideas. Looked at global herbs Airways plus as it is for mucus. Any other recommendations?
