RE: [RC] HELP - sores in horses' mouths! - Sheila A. Walsh
Kathy,
As for sores in the mouth: my DVM,
Homeopathic vet says to be dosing with probiotics. She says mouth
sores indicate stomach ulcers and that probiotics aid in healing them. I
had a gelding with mouth ulcers and they were gone less than a week after
starting him on ProBi.
Best wishes,
Sheila

horses' mouths!
Fortunately not my horses, but today my friend has
discovered bloody ulcers in all her horses’ mouths, inside the lips.
There is no debris from foxtails or hay, and the horses are at two different
locations, miles apart, but getting the same hay, grass/alfalfa. Any
ideas? She flushed their mouths with a mild warm salt water solution and
they seem to appreciate that, but she is stumped as to the cause, just assuming
it must be something in the hay.
Susan? Heidi? Or anyone else ever experience this type of
(possible) toxicity?
