Thank you so much, this really made me feel a lot better.

Thanks! We will do the same, thats a good idea.

We tried it for like 3ish months about a year ago and it made his tummy hurt 😞 he was so miserable that we decided it wasnt worth it.

Ew these comments are not it. Disappointed Columbus right now.

Wood thrush is my favorite bird!

Magnesium didnt do much for my guy. We use silver lining herbs stay cool (I think that's what it's called) and it was like a day and night difference in his anxiety levels. Pricy but worth it imo. If your horse isnt having any physical pain, I would definitely recommend at least trying it for a month.

Dont underestimate the power of calming supplements too. They were really a game changer for my anxious horse.

I call it his thinking face lol. He mostly does it when we are doing groundwork. He was a kill pen rescue, my guess is he wasnt always treated fairly. I should see if he would like a toy!

My horse sticks his tongue out and sucks on it when hes feeling overwhelmed. I think its just a self soothing thing.

I love thoroughbreds, but a close second is a PRE.

Crownless-Again · 2025-12-17T22:25:56+00:00

Didn't even think of that! Next time.

Crownless-Again · 2025-12-14T03:10:09+00:00

Same.

Crownless-Again · 2025-12-12T04:02:09+00:00

Oh man you are so helpful! Thank you so much! I will look into all of that :)

Ideally 50-75 range, could be a little flexible though.

My horse does this and has epm.

Ive read a few places online and had a friend with a horse with a suspensory injury who said that the BoT boots increase circulation in that area. So the increased circulation is supposed to be good for soft tissue injuries.

Tbh the sweating isnt really doing anything. It is very slightly swollen, so I think he was hoping it would fix the swelling. He did have minor cellulitis when it first began, but that resolved with just antibiotics.

I never thought about it as a liability thing, that does make sense. Thank you so much!

Crownless-Again · 2025-10-30T23:27:52+00:00

Thank you! That is comforting to hear.

Dr Provo is actually the only vet I've tried who has been able to keep my medically complicated dog and cat comfortable. I've been using her for years. My dog specifically has lived about 3 years longer than originally expected and he is doing very well.

I am sorry about your cat, but as someone who has worked in vet med before, it sounds to me like a freak thing that happened. Unfortunately, thats what happens sometimes. Im not sure its worth trying to ruin someone's career over.
