[QUOTE="putnamd, post: 177517, member: 2354"] Thank you for your input. I think you're right I will discuss further w. vet about taking him to MSU. I can't just put him down Like that. To answer your Q's. I called my first vet (an older horse vet & doesn't like to make farm calls)and he suggested the banamine to help get him up and continue use for next few days. As he layed down again I called a reputable equine vet- he came out helped me get him up and prescribed the bute. When riden in Dec. it was a xmas parade-he likes to prance-kids like it. then trails-nothing rough-walk, trot.Seem to be normal. Keep in mind that he just lays down maybe to rest or maybe hes sore but its not like he can't stand and falls down. I am going to try to post this on some other sites also- I've got to try some other things-he's just too good of a horse to let go. I know what the rest of you are saying and I guess if it comes to that I will have to-but need to try something yet.Thank you [/QUOTE]
