Horse Health Library Videos: http://pak.horse/HHLvids Ask the Vet form: http://pak.horse/2gkBThy Questions answered in this episode: 1. What exactly is a bowed tendon? What causes a bowed tendon? What is the rehab protocol? What are the effects on future soundness (any athletic restrictions)? 2. Can mares in heat have symptoms similar to colic? If so, is there anything I can give my mare to reduce pain? 3. I have seen riders get on and walk their horse for half a lap around the ring before putting them right to work. Is this just asking for an injury? What is the proper way and length of time to warm a horse up, particularly before taking a jumping lesson? Also, my horse spends most of her day in a stall. Does she need even more warm up time? 4. I keep hearing about the importance of having your hay tested so you know the nutrition content. How do you interpret the results of a hay analysis? Thank you for all the videos - they’re super informative and helpful! 💕 5. What are your thoughts on mowing pastures? Isn’t it bad to leave the grass clippings behind when mowing especially if the horses go back in the pasture right away and eat them?
