I have a strong suspicion my half Arab, Jazzi has
ulcers. No I have not had her scoped (would rather buy hay with the money).
She has many of the symptoms – paces, crews wood, is a nervous Nelly,
etc. I have been feeding her 7/24, added a vit/mineral supplement and
her symptoms have been greatly reduced. I am wondering what other folks
are doing for horses who have ulcers – what works and what doesn’t?
I crewed at the 100 mile National Championship several years
ago when it was held at WarnerSprings. One of my
jobs was to dose the horse w/ Neighlox and e-lytes. I am not sure that is
the road I want to take. In a perfect world I would find a supplement that
would cure her suspected ulcers, preserve her joints, give her a shiny coat,
etc. OK, I’m rambling, any ideas?
