[QUOTE="TR, post: 139815, member: 22"] J- She's just now 6 mos, and is on no workout schedule whatsoever. Just out on pasture. I haven't noticed her running and playing, but that doesn't mean that she hasn't done it which was why I was looking for a soft tissue injury and am really looking at her pasterns. There's just no swelling or tenderness anywhere to indicate a sprain or strain. I've left her out as the vet said that walking on that foot might help bring the abcess (if that's what it is) to the surface, and penning her would end up in throwing her into fits trying to get to the other horses. She seems to be taking care of herself though, and not overdoing it. Alan - Holy cow! Colic after a few days?!? Man, I sure didn't think of that, but I've never had a baby on Bute before either. She's on 2 grams 1Xday. She also won't eat her feed with the sulfa on it, so I've had to mix it up in a 60cc syringe with some water and squirt it down her throat. That's supposed to be administered once a day too. So, bless her little heart, she gets Bute, Sulfa, soaked and fed all at once, and you're right, it sure sounds like a sure fire concoction for colic..... Okay, so while all this is going on, I guess I need to teach her how to load just in case....... [/QUOTE]
