Oh I've been there once

I would like to know why some vet’s perscribe Pergilyde vs. Perscend. Both drugs are pricey. My 16 yr old Shetland is on Perscend. She still has an appetite. She doesn’t have anymore flair ups of laminitis.

15 is not an old horse I don't call a horse getting old until about 25,

awesome thanks for making this so people have an idea how it is!

is Cushings a Parasitic infection?

Absolutely love Jimmy Anderson. Such a gentleman and I LOVE his alternate techniques of establishing a rapport and a partnership with each horse to earn their respect and trust.

Awesome

I have a 10 year old haflinger that I acquired a year ago. Has laminitis, was extremely high strung and spooky, got her vet checked and told it's possible she has Cushing's disease, because she sees a little bit of crusty neck starting. She's absolutely beautiful, got leather pads (frog support) for her feet, brand new diet of low starch/ sugars / no treats ... Getting ready to add apple cider vinegar to her diet and a slow feeder for her hay. Her diet has already changed her attitude, and she's absolutely beautiful. Her feet feel better and we started doing a little bareback which is a major milestone for her. So proud of my beautiful "Spirit".🐎❤️ Everything is just starting so I hope we caught it very early. She doesn't have a problem with her coat or anything else except for the laminitis and a very hard time with stress. She is not overweight. My horse is far from lethargic lol. She's just awesome and the prettiest halflinger I ever saw. The blood test they are talking about uses dexamethasone. Dexamethasone can cause a flare-up in horses that are already showing signs, such as laminitis in the feet. I would never do that test on my girl. I will just treat her diet like she has it.

How can so many horses have it , how can one blood test confirm it ,, my horse has tested positive ,at 12 with no other symptoms other then laminatis after foot triming

Jimmy Anderson is one cool cucumber with horses! He is a great teacher!

Can Cushing's result in a heart arrhythmia? If Cushing's causes a cascade of hormonal imbalances, could it also be a cause for potential heart problems in horses?

Is It possible to have an 5yo with Cushing?

How to recover a horse which can’t walk.

This is one of the most wholesome videos I've ever seen on YT. Thank you.

A very educational and to the point video. I just feel the need to add that horses of all ages and breed can get this. I too thought that cushing was something (only) overweight and old ponies had. along with the laminitis. I was wrong as horse was diagnosed last year when he was 12. A very atypical example of PPID being only 12, normal weight and a thoroughbred. Almost all the sign and symptoms were present. He is on medication, but when tested here a couple of weeks ago, the result was still too high unfortunately.

Flies swarming a particular horse point to something wrong too.

To much music can’t hear you talking

Very informative !

I'm surprised you didn't mention a low starch diet. I've got two suspect Cushing's horses on low starch diets doing quite well without pergolyde.

Pergilyde made my horse stop eating completely. 1/2 mg.! So now, as he is 31 (?had since 3 1/2, :) and has had about 3 years now, does not seem altered in any other ways and still ride him. Besides yellow hay, no molasses and switching from any senior feed (just sugar etc.), to alfalfa pellets and rice bran. Can I use flaxseed itself instead of the oil? thx

EQCentric will be there providing a demo/info session on Equi-Bow and Equi-Tape .. Come and visit!!

The herb ''Chaste Berry'' or ''Vitex'' is incredible for regulating the hormones in horses and people. Please look into it!

I can tell about any type of horse disease. My cont.nem 09799603635

My heart pounds ,,just watching,,loved it,,

A horse at my yard was put to sleep due to cushings disease last year. She showed all of these symptoms😭. RIP Blaze💜🐴

How many horse get necropsy to verify the diagnoses of Cushing's Disease ? My guess is very few...this syndrome has become a money maker for veterinarians and the pharmaceutical industry. Most of time when two or more of the symptoms are present the diagnosis quickly turns to Cushing's. In New England and in other areas where Oak Trees are prevalent the diagnosis of Tannin poisoning is seldom reach yet will create all of the symptoms of Cushing's. Why do most veterinarians miss tannin ? Could it be no $$$...their training is done at Universities that are subsidized by pharmaceutical companies and there the best cure for tannin overload is remove the horse from the environment ? Could it be because tannin overload will correct on it's own and doe not require a lifetime of management with drugs ? This year in New England new cases of Cushing's Disease will be lower...why...because the Gypsy Moth Caterpillar has devastated the OakTrees.

Lookin' forward to it. See you there Larry!

What is your view on Dumor senior feed? I have a 27 yr old paint/mix gelding who is a hard keeper. He has his teeth floated twice a year. He is still an active pleasure/trail horse. His energy is good but his hip, ribs and topline are in poor shape ( possibly a 3?). We currently feed dumor senior with manapro senior weight gain, hay twice a day and alfalfa pellets. (Everything but the hay is mixed and soaked ). He has always been sound but always been thinner ( I've had him for about 9 years). Is there something I'm doing wrong? I know the Senior feed is low crude fats needed for a hard keeper, but that is why I supplemented with Manapro. I cannot afford the higher priced feeds ( such as Purina) is there a comparable brand that still ahs the same quality but with more crude fats? Also the only feed store I have is a local Tractor Supply co.

Another great video ... thanks Larry.

Can't wait to watch y'all try it out! How do you plan out an obstacle like this?

Thanks Larry Your the best

Very nice

Can't wait for this year!

Thanks Larry for your support. We enjoy your show. see you at our next event Can Am Equine Expo.

Love seein' all that blue. Nope the mud is never a problem. :D

We also had our hayfeeders at the Equine Expo to fundraise for Kendal -

Looks pretty fun!

What a blast!

Well done Larry!

Who cleans up the horse shit?

Great job Larry! What's the music?

Thanks for the input Patricia, The show was done with the intent of reminding people to pay attention to the new growth in the pasture, If the show prevents one horse/pony getting laminitis , then we have done our job, I included Kevin because he works in that business full time, I consider him an expert. Thanks again for your input.

PS: because grass is green does not mean it will cause laminitis. Green grass the most nutritious plants a horse can consume. The sunny days followed by cold nights is typical of Spring and Fall in most regions and that's why Spring grass is labeled dangerous, but it's those temps we need to be watchful of.

Laminitis - means inflammation of the lamina - connective tissue in the hoof between the coffin bone (so termed because it is buried deep within the hoof) and the wall. Even dying stressed grass can be dangerous, but to know when grass is most dangerous, isn't just by determining how green it is. Temperatures tell us how dangerous the grass is. If night-time temps fall below 40degrees after a day of sunshine. Daytime sun causes photosynthesis (manufacture of sugars in plants) cold temps at night cause the sugary grass to go dormant rather than what would happen if nighttime temps were mild and that is that the sugary grass, respirates the sugars out and the process starts over the next day. And the coffin bone does move around in the hoof like he's suggest because it's not just floating around in the hoof. There are very strong ligaments and tendons holding the bone in place. But we tend to xray "after" founder to see a bone that appears to have rotated when really the hoof is compromised prior to founder long toe underrun heel. Many "foundered" horses are xrayed with no rotation.

Well done , every year more is learned about laminitis and founder more people need to pay attention

Thank you Larry ... I have never been comfortable with horse barn owners who say "Ah ... they're alright they eat the snow!" ... it's great knowing that there a like-minded horse people around. Great Video ... (Y)

Great job Larry!
