You
might want to do a Safeguard or Panacur purge (double
dose every day for 5 days)on your horse, especially if
he has no dental problems and is not gaining weight as quickly as you think he
should for the amount of feed he is consuming. All my horses are keeping on
weight better since I purged them last winter, kind of even hard to keep them
from getting chubby. One of my 5 horses drools/slobbers quite a bit also,
especially when he sees horse cookies. His teeth are fine.

Hi
ridecampers
I
am hoping that someone can help answer my question regarding my 4yr old arab gelding,I just got him about 5 months ago
and he is thin so I'm feeding him beep pulp, rice bran, safe choice and fast
track. So he has put on some weight but not much, Anyways he seems to develop a
lot of saliva than it drools out of his mouth, it seems to happen a lot more
when he is round pen, lunged, or ridden (no bit).I'm wondering if this is normal I've
seen horses in dressage or show ring that do this and people say that the horse
like the bit, well I'm not using any bit he just does it all the time even in
pasture, so should I be concern about this or is this normal. Thanks for any
info Sincerely Teena Padilla
