Re: [RC] ginger for horses? - marybenstover

They used to use ginger on the saddlebreds when I was a little kid in the 50's.  Did not know anyone still used it.  Should be outlawed............mb

Subject: [RC] ginger for horses?

OK, so I went to the opening day of the Scottsdale Arabian show today. It was late in the day and most of the activity was over but the shopping, I proceeded to the Schinders tent to do some exploring. Standing in the row of rub, lotions and lineament I saw a small jar and the cover said “Ginger rub”. Knowing ginger is an amazing natural product I was curious to the use for it on horses, I picked it up and read – Use for tail carriage – apply to rectum ten minutes before show time! OMG!

 

I will never understand this world of horse showing and the poor unsuspecting horse with ginger on his a*^! I can’t even get a crupper under my guys tail, lol!

 

More stories to come for the world of over privileged riders and under privileged horsesJ
