You are such a beautiful person, your words of comfort, hope and sharing of memories with Brandy has tears streaming down my face. I am so glad everyone involved is better this morning, Thanks to you and your team.
Oh man. I hate mystery illness - especially in horses.
Minor thought with the somewhat-neurological symptoms - she hasn’t been eating sage or rabbitbrush has she? Poop would be a bit “minty” and yellowish. This is the time of year when I had two horses decide to eat that stuff because there was nothing else green left. I lost both of them before I got it figured out. :/
It was a weird anomaly that happened many years ago. My vet was completely stumped despite pulling PM’s on both horses. (Gut contents bright yellow and minty.) It wasn’t until I took a dye class (using sage!!) that I put two and two together (because of the yellow/mint smell) and went looking for toxicity reports. Ever since then, as soon as my pasture gets heat stressed and the grass goes dormant, I pull the horses off and start feeding hay. Usually in September, but it’s already happened here.
It's always 5 o'clock somewhere! I already had tears in my eyes! Sounds as though you might want to get Pep to in bulk!
So glad for the outcome!
Love you!!!
Pepto
Don’t think that works on horses. I have, however, given it to the sheep
You remind me to totally respect farmers
Thank you. I really appreciate hearing that
Oh man, I would not want to have to put a tube up a horses nose!
Me either which is why I call in the professionals!!
Oh my goodness. So glad everyone is ok. And just remember… it is always 5pm somewhere ….
Thank you. And so very true!!!
Basic bodily functions! After a day like you had, a wee nip for something fortifying is justified! Just don’t operate any heavy machinery!
I promise to stay off the tractor.
Prudence is the better part of valor! Hope the poor old horsey continues to get better.
Thank you

Thank you for your kind words. It was definitely a group effort. I’m still tearing up even this morning

Oh I’m so sorry!! Her poop does not indicate she has eaten that. We have very little of it on the property also.
Oh good - and also, you have poop to look at!

Also. Horses drive me to drink. No judgement if there’s some Screwball in your coffee this morning.
