I feel like I ask for so little and yet I can't get that.<BR/>Some days I really am ready to pull his shoes and be done; no more riding. The up and down roller coaster is what sucks, one min he's great and the next we are right back where we were. The last time he felt good was when all those riding pics were taken:-( It's been downhill since then.<BR/><BR/>I'm researching supps, among other things...Denise- LessIsMore17https://www.blogger.com/profile/11875671948514151680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258068166580945144.post-13681826805003237652008-06-25T16:21:00.000-04:002008-06-25T16:21:00.000-04:00i know that you love riding him and i am a total b...i know that you love riding him and i am a total believer in Parelli, but it might be something to look into to working with him on. it's a lot of play and connecting with him so you can still work him without riding him. you can still have that connection without being on him.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10578530800813066368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258068166580945144.post-61670614327889247482008-06-24T12:58:00.000-04:002008-06-24T12:58:00.000-04:00Poor Lester!

I hope you can figure out a program that works for him and keeps him comfortable longer. If you decide to look at supplements I've heard good things about SmartFlex (from SmartPak).Dressage Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03547664899091391963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258068166580945144.post-5761912298339321422008-06-23T15:01:00.000-04:002008-06-23T15:01:00.000-04:00I'm sorry too - I have a friend who deals with the...I'm sorry too - I have a friend who deals with the same thing - beautiful mare, super talents but has all kinds of joint problems. Her advantage is that some day soon she can retire her to a brood mare where she won't have to work anymore and hurt...<BR/><BR/>I have seen some supplements do wonders and some not work at all - seems to depend on the nature of the injury and the horse.

I know some vets say that the feed through supplements are not worth anything and don't work but some say to try them.<BR/>Cessa gets Joint Combo by Farnam. (its for joint, hoof and coat) I took her off it for a few months in the fall and winter and noticed a change, for the worse. I put her back on it and in a little while she was back to "normal".cdncowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055181472294995601noreply@blogger.com
