Over the years I have lost 3 horses including the best horse I have ever seen. I am so sorry you all are going through this. A bond with a horse is a special treasure. I really hope he pulls through.

Dang...hate to hear that for both. Prayers lifted for her horse for healing and for your daughter for comfort and courage.

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

So sorry. Oil, Banamine and/or Novin, and walk, I guess. All too familiar from my years in Arizona working with horses. I would have thought the vet would give better odds. here's hoping

A prayer for your Daughter and her Horse.

There's something wonderful with being blessed with a wonderful companion, whether it be a dog, cat, horse or any animal. We are fortunate to find such a bond that gives us such unconditional love and companionship.

May God Bless.

Thanks, and thanks to all for your kind words, thoughts and prayers.

Lube and wash from both ends, with Banamine, and she is massaging his gut as much as he can tolerate it.

She rescued him five years ago and got him a new home, but recently got him back. Another horse bit his rump several months ago and that has been a long healing process (and stressor) as he lost a lot of hip muscle from the injury and normal sloughing and atrophy during the healing.

His paddock and stall area were very sandy where he was living and his hay was flaked to the ground, so that accounts for the years of ingesting the sand.

He is 30 years old, and I think that is a lot of the factoring of his odds.

Daughter said "he lives or he dies", but she will do all she can while she can.

He has not eaten in five days now, other than nibbling a little grass, and she has to keep him from trying to roll, and she and two friends are doing round the clock watch to keep him up and walking, drinking and such.

Her "odds" at making it into the world and surviving were stacked as hard against her, so she has always been a fierce fighter herself.

She's a "Honey Badger" and very pragmatic.
