Re: [RC] worming question for Susan - Laney Humphrey

Have you considered that she might have an allergy to flies? It's sometimes called sweet itch & is an allergy to the saliva I think. Horse's with it rub their tails and manes.

Our lovely Lyric has, again, rubbed her tail almost off after several
worming RX's.  My vet tells me she has encountered several cases of
resistant worms (pin worms, I believe). So I am of the mind to give Lyric  a
5 day Pancur purge.  I have reviewed the archives and just need to check to
see if the previous recommendation of 5 days of double dosage followed
several weeks later by ivermection is still correct.  My second question
regards the use of cattle/livestock pancur.  The correct dosage is about 50
mg for a 800 lb horse?  Many thanks for you suggestions and help.

PS I rode for a few minutes yesterday, what a thrill!  Between PT, chiro
visits and the dentist I have no life.  My back is so very slowly improving,
but I will not be able to ride (as in train/LD) for some time. Yesterday we
spread Jerry's ashes by the creek.  Our horses knew what we were doing.
Lyric wrapped her neck around Danielle and held her for several minutes.  I
was on Sierra our 25 year old quarter horse who was her perfect self.  It
was a beautiful day in spite of the sadness we all felt.
