Easing the Symptoms of Lyme Disease in Horses

Recently, my Selle Francais gelding was diagnosed with long-term, low-grade chronic Lyme disease. We knew he had been infected for a minimum of 5 months, but think it could have been as long as 2+ years. He was never really symptomatic, but his negative personality traits had become more pronounced...

Is It Spring Yet?

The dreaded fat leg. You know the one I'm talking about. It shows up out of no where. There is no heat, no pain (other than the pain of trying to get rid of it), no discomfort at all. The fat leg that taunts you by going down just enough...
