gave him his first antibiotic injection tonight. Vet. friend said should see improvement tomorrow night and even more improvement by Wed. I HOPE SO. Very tired of seeing him struggle to walk. Very tired of seeing him laying down. He got up, waited for me to inject him then laid back down on the othe...

Saddlebum

I had another Vet. out on Friday as the improvement from the worm treatment was minor really and no further improvement. The vet. on Friday said he thought it was a slip on the ice and the injury was in both front pastern areas???? hmmm, ok, treated with bute and wait. Sat. minor improvement and no ...

Saddlebum

hoopoe, I make you Queen of the World! YEA! If only our politicians had the ability of making this happen.

I know Sanders had ideas along this line in remaking the political money machine.

Saddlebum

My donkey is significantly better this am. Still not out of the woods but I believe my vet has the correct diagnosis based on his improvement. Left her messages this am and am waiting to hear back on where to go now. He walks with his head down but not on the ground like before. About one foot above...

Saddlebum

Josette, I don't think that's it. His attitude is good except he's having a hard time walking. His ears prick up and he's alert. No stupor and no depression that I can see. He's been standing in the run-in shed stall doorway and looking out. He keeps pricking up his ears and looking at stuff. It's s...

Saddlebum

opps, wanted to add. his eyes followed the apple all around the moon so his eyes are working. i really think it's neurological.

Saddlebum

Kande50, thought of all those things. I called my vet and she can't be here till the weekend. she called this am after thinking about it overnight and thought it might be a worm that only donkeys and goats get. I drove over and picked up some dexamethasone from her and injected along with a heavy do...

Saddlebum

Friday, my donkey seemed to walk funny and with his head down. By walking funny, he was paddling out with his left front hoof and I assumed his head was down because of his hoof or leg problem. I checked out his hoof and there was nothing in it, no heat, seemed perfectly ok. I lead him out and he ke...

Saddlebum

She's Beautiful. My first horse was a morgan mare that came with the small farm my parents bought. We went everywhere together. Morgans are special!

Saddlebum

I didn't watch it but from this am's reports, apparently they behaved like petulant children. Sounds like they were not able to control their angry/frustrated feelings and behave diplomatically towards one another and have a debate. But, resorted to calling one another 'liars' etc. I'm not wanting t...

Saddlebum

Thanks Tarlo, with a Jack Russell mix, that's nearly impossible because while inside, all that energy has to go somewhere. Even so, you are right, he's still off on his rt. hind and it's because he's not getting much needed healing time. The last two days he's been kept quiet since the temp is so co...

Saddlebum

Thanks, she got an attorney right away. SSDI just sent her another form basically asking the same questions as the o. application. It's six pages of her work history for the last fifteen years etc. How much wt. she carried, # of hrs. worked at each job, her duties, etc. How's she feeling now, her li...

Saddlebum

She has to move because the cost is way too much. The SSD check will be very close to $1,200 a month and her house alone costs just over $1,000, not including utilities, medical expense and food every month. She's going to try going back to work part time starting next month. Is that going to stop h...

Saddlebum

Ha ha, funny one. I quit gluten and am so glad BUT...I rarely ever ever ate garlic bread, but when I did, loved it. Ever since I quit gluten, that's what I crave. I think about it often...I can smell it, I feel it on my tongue, I look at it in the frozen aisle at the grocery store (I NEVER did this ...

Saddlebum

My sister needs my help and I am at a loss. She needs to move. She may go back to work part time 3 days a week next month but that is up in the air. She has Scloerderma (sp.) and it's tightening of the skin and muscles and in her case, is affecting her lungs (scarring). Her house costs her just over...

The voters don't really elect a president. We vote on how we want ours partys' state delegates to vote at the National Convention. The delegates each state chooses are free to vote how they wish. Historically, they vote the way the majority of the participants voted (99% of the time) in the national...

Saddlebum

The first article recommended the .22 caliber but stated the .38 or 9mm would also work. The second article did recommend all three the same but said some people think the .22 may not have enough velocity for a large draft type horse. The first article gave a very good detail description of placemen...

Saddlebum

my heavy horse can't handle dust/mold in his hay. I use cough free (keep some on hand always) when he starts coughing and then start soaking his hay. I use a 50 gal plastic barrel and fill it then soak his hay for about 5 min. under water (can use the water for 4-5 soakings). About a week after I be...

Saddlebum

I'm so sorry you had to learn of it at all Minz. (((((((((HUGS)))))))))

Saddlebum

That was my concern, cleanly and humanely. I arrived there with my rifle and knew to shot at the X between the ears/eyes but did not feel confident enough to know for sure the 22 would do the job. So we talked about it and then tried the vets again and one did answer who happened to be on a call clo...

Saddlebum

My friend's horse went down and could not get up (was EPM). She could not reach a vet. She called me and the only thing I have is a 22 rifle. I took that over and I do know where to shot a horse in the head (X) but was not sure the bullet would be adequate. We reached a vet after 30 mins. and he was...

Saddlebum

He is very pretty and looks like a kind hearted horse. Have FUN!

Saddlebum

Whoo Hoo! I would love to do that. You are so lucky. Wish a rescue were closer and I would.

Saddlebum

He's beautiful and only 6, wow, he's just a baby yet. Have fun throughout this journey!

Saddlebum

If it were my fur ball child, I would let it run it's course. Reason, she's playing, eating and drinking. So, imo, whatever it is, is not dangerous or life threatening at this time. Vomiting is not a fun thing to do. It's the before and after behavior I would keep an eye on. If it's not broken.... (...

Ditto everyone above Shrrine (((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))

Colloidal Silver - BAM, gone.

Have a two horse bp basic - no managers so they can drop their heads when need be - very light wt which I love. I love my trailer but have a truck with extended cab which I use for the tack room, bed holds the hay. Don't show much, mainly haul to different areas for trail riding or helping to haul f...

Saddlebum

I Love to camp. This brought back so many fun memories. Glad you had a safety officer who managed to find his way home, hehehe.

Saddlebum

Enjoyed the pics, Very Pretty Horses! Thanks.

Saddlebum

thanks, I'll talk this over with my vet. friend and see if she's into doing this.

Saddlebum

Spiritpaws, what is PRP?

Thanks Code3, I intend he heal well and have a very long and healthy life also! So Be It and So It Is! Amen.

Saddlebum

Thanks Hoof'n it, I will keep up with this. I did take my dog in for x-rays and everything was boringly normal. We x-rayed his back, hips and one knee and it looks great - very normal. We decided he, in his exuberance, has pulled a tendon or muscle or... who knows what but it's not joint or bone rel...

Saddlebum

that's a very good article and thank you for finding it for me!

Saddlebum

Sorry, wasn't thinking. I got him from a rescue at 6 months old and very subtly he showed signs right away. Most of the time early on, I doubted what I was seeing it was so subtle. Then after about 6 -8 months, I knew for sure, he was off just couldn't tell where. But I started watching for it and d...

Saddlebum

Tomorrow am taking him in for x-rays but has been palpated and we think it's arthritis in his right hip joint. He's part Jack Russel Terrier, weighs 32 lbs. and will be 2 yo May 15th. He jumps up a LOT. He's been so fun to watch him bounce around and I don't know what can be done for a dog this youn...

Saddlebum

I'm glad you're working with a realtor you know! She should work on your behalf. My realtor was AWESOME. An older lady who worked hard to do the right thing for me. She wrote into the purchase agreement loads of things the seller had to do before closing and the seller agreed to all. You can write i...

Saddlebum

Ditto to everyone above. So sad, one of my favorite actors. Die Hard, Galaxy Quest, Harry Potter, so many roles he captured and shared with us. Will miss him.

Saddlebum

I thought it was wonderfully uplifting/positive/truthful and spot on in so many ways. I don't get TV but watched it on utube.

Saddlebum

I thought gun control revision is only about closing the loop holes with respect to gun shows, used gun sales via hmm, sorry, can't thing of he word but like a swap meet. My understanding is anyone can show up at one of these and purchase any gun they choose without a background check. Closing that ...

Saddlebum

My take is that it's a parady on Trump. Saying if he's pres., he's going to have a huge wall built between the U.S. and Mexico and make Mexico pay for it. Colbert is using Canada this time instead of Mexico. When the Powerball was first established, it was only available 4-5 states and I believe mos...

Duffy is beautiful and am sending you jingles for a pain free and fast recovery!

Saddlebum

Oh My! So sorry to hear this. Sending you blessings for a fast and pain free recovery!

I like Poppy!

Adorable dog - looked like he was very well behaved for his first showing. Congratulations.

Saddlebum

I feel blessed, my coffee also has a whisker, hehehehe.

Saddlebum

Feel the same way. So good of you to put this out there Tarlo Farm, thanks.

Saddlebum

Shrine -- Lots of ((((((HUGS))))))) and jingles you get better and feel better soon!

Saddlebum

Yes, I too often find it frustrating trying to get a perspective as location is necessary for so many reasons.

Saddlebum

You could get the toaster oven then include the receipt maybe? That way, if it is too big for their space, they can return it and you will still be over fulfilling their wish.

I know it's tacky but it's also thoughtful.
