[RC] 100 miler list: "...remember this list when someone gives you advice and if they ain't on it.........nuff said" - A.

Susan " well dang, here I was about to pass on some thrush advise to Kathy Ramspott, but I see that I am not on that there list so I guess I don't know nuttin. Maybe I shouldn't eben ride a horse until I've done a 100 miler... wait aminute, that won;t work...dang, now I'm all confused! ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This may not be the place to ask this but considering how many folks here have so many more years experience then I do I wanted to take advantage. I have had horse folks look at a horse foot and point to a black spot that is relatively small and say eh oh, there is some thrush starting in here. Then I can point to some larger black area along the frog of my horses foot and ask my farrier time and time again if it is thrush and he (who has over 20 years professional riding and being a farrier and is well respected by my vet) say oh no, that’s not thrush, you’ll KNOW when it is thrush, it will be really really strong smelling and oozing. So which is it? Do I treat any blackish area on the feet of my horses with thrush medication or do I wait until I smell and see oozing black gunk. By the way, the books I read also describe it as mushy blackness around the frog. This has been making me crazy. Any book recommendations are always welcome.
