[RC] Worming- daily or single dose? - Tracy Cann

Affect performance?  Really?  Didn't know that.  My guys are on daily with purges at least twice a year with a good botacide.  I didn't know a daily dewormer would affect performance.  Which way, good or bad?  My guys are doing great.  My current ride just completed his first 2-day 50 and did just wonderful.  Also, through a program with Strongid I get free colic insurance if I keep them on a the daily with biannual checks from the vet.  I do that anyway.  You just have to buy the dewormer from the vet's office and they keep track of it all and do the paperwork.  If a horse that's in the program has to have colic surgery you can be reimbursed up to $5000 from the Strongid company.  I think it's Pfizer.  Anyway, I'll be interested in any other replies you get to your question.
