After another tie up problem with my mare , this one pretty severe , I am 
looking to add some calcium to her diet just on ride day . I have discussed 
this with my vet and he feels it is a good idea but since he is not an 
endurance vet he is not sure of the dosage  . Do any of you give your horses 
limestone at rides ? If so can you tell me the dosage you use . I read in 
the archives that some riders on hot humid rides give limestone for thumping 
problems , but no one mentioned how much or how often . Any and all 
knowledge of this will be appreciated .
