Re: [RC] Stall Rest? - Sarah W


I am not sure what type of set up you have, but is
there a possibility of bringing on of your guy's
pasture buddies and putting him/her in a stall next to
the patient?  It would mean double the stall cleaning
but is worth having a calm horse.

Subject: [RC] Stall Rest?


Hi ridecampers,
I am looking for any ideas to help a pretty fit
endurance horse who has
been put on 2 weeks stall rest.  He is pacing,
fretting, head shaking,
calling to his friends in the field, and digging
holes in his stall.  He
has all the hay he can eat and a full water tub but
is not drinking very
well even though he is going through a lot of hay. 
He eats very soupy
meals and drinks a bucket of his "tea" (warm water)
after every meal, but
if he doesn't get out soon he will need psychiatric
care.  He is supposed
to be resting for an ankle injury but he is doing
little pirouettes in the
stall and is very conversational.  I am allowed to
hand walk (read become a
human anchor) him to graze a bit but it is like
lighting the fuse on a
rocket.  any suggestions?
Becky
