My leasing horse is susceptible to server thrush and laminitis. Last year she went through a terrible lamanitic state (three months) and during that time, she had terrible thrush due to the paddocks not being maintained. Unfortunately, the paddocks are past cleaning state and would require a tractor to due so. Is there any other (besides store bought thrush aids, thrush buster for an example) preventive care for the feet, any form of bedding or a product that could help lower the risk of thrush or help maintain it from getting worse? And on the topic of laminitis, any ways to help prevent her from getting as bad as it was? (The chances of her becoming lame are high, she is old, in hard work and the outdoor living conditions are terrible). Thanks!

Never answered the question.
Should BLM mustangs be supplemented and grained like other horses in the barn or are they better off without it?#askthevet
