Re: [RC] allergies - Mary SutliffWe have a 4 year old Paso with allergies. Took him to an equine allergist where he was tested and found to be allergic to lots of stuff. He went through a series of allergy shots and now gets a shot every 16 days. We are working up to a 30 day schedule. The shots are easy to give as the needle is very small. He hardly notices. He also takes an antihistamine when the hives are bad. This doesn't affect our riding him at all. One of the vets would have to comment on if this program would violate AERC rules. ============================================================ If you treat an Arab like a Thoroughbred, it will behave like a Quarter horse. ~ Libby Llop ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
