I have an 18 year old Tennessee walker horse and an wondering what type of suppliments I should give her?
Hello. If she is not having any issues, then there is usually nothing more to give her except for plenty of good grass hay, some concentrates, either as a sweet feed or a pelleted feed, & a salt block. A senior pelleted feed might be appropriate for Destiny, but if you are concerned about a health issue, you should consult your veterinarian for this. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Hi i board my horse so I can’t give him an extra meal to help him gain weight. Are there any supplements I should try? Since we love in upstate NY it’s hard to get good hay and grass. Any other tips for weight gain would be great!
Hi again. Your main source of calories should come from good forage but if that is unavailable, you will need to add more fat to the diet. You can do this with vegetable oils, especially doybrsn oil rather than corn oil. Start with 2 ounces of oil twice daily & gradually build up to 8 ounces twice daily. Another source of fat is stabilized rice bran, which is about 20% fat & is palatable to horses. This is also less messy than an oil. You would feed the same increasing amount as the oil. Watch the manure for any signs of diarrhea or loose stool & back off the fats as necessary. Hope this helps & thanks againfor using Boop by Petco.

Wondering about the equine joint supplement lubrigen is it good bad is it tested
Hello, thank you for using Boop by Petco! I think Lubrigen is a good supplement as a preventive to help with joint health. If the horse already has joint problems this product probably isn’t going to help that much; however, it won’t hurt to use it. As far as testing goes, the supplements are not regulated by any organization like the FDA so I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s tested. Most companies do their own anecdotal testing but I don’t think I would abide by that. If you’re looking for an actual FDA approved product that has had evidence based testing done, you should ask your vet about using Lengend and/or Adequan. Really, it all depends on what you are trying to achieve. I suggest you talk to your veterinarian directly as they have your horses history and can probably help you make the best choice. Hope this helps. Best wishes!

My 25 year old gelding, Bo, cant seem to keep or gain any weight. I feed him 4 lbs of senior grain morning and night at the previois recommendation of my vet, he has access to grass and hay, but he still looks like hes neglected. I just cant get him
Make sure your vet has done full bloodwork and an exam to look for any obvious age-related health issues like bad teeth, infection, or internal tumors. Senior feed is great, but some horses need more like 12-15 lbs of it per day to maintain decent weight. It can get really expensive, unfortunately. If you increase the feed, do so very slowly to avoid colic or impaction. Beet pulp and high-fat supplements can also help. I use Purina Amplify. Hope that helps!

Hey there i am wondering what treatment options I have for my horse who has arthritis
There are many treatment options actually. Here they are: 1) Oral joint supplements like Dasuquin or Adequan is available over the counter 2) Fish oils (pet formulated from your local pet store). These have natural anti-inflammatory properties. 3) Analgesics- strictly for pain: Tramadol OR Gabapentin from your local vet 4) Glycoaminoglycans- weekly Adequan injections for 4-6 weeks is a very effective treatment for osteoarthritis in pets. 5) NSAIDs- pet formulated only and prescribed by your veterinarian. Carprofen, Deramaxx, etc. Here is more information on osteoarthritis in pets and effective treatments to reiterate what I have suggested here. http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=2863
