@Dusty, I appreciate that. The vet said we could try the antibiotics again, but I reached the point where I was asking why is it going to be different this 6th time around?

It's never an easy decision, but im sure he would have been grateful for you choosing to give him a year full of love and comfort rather than 10 years of increasingly worse problems

@Dusty, he was diagnosed with gallstones in January and ever since that struggled with nausea, vomiting, and lack of appetite. We tried antibiotics, prescription food, and daily meds, but it didn't seem to make him feel better. He would be ok for a couple weeks and then be sick for a week, get better for a couple weeks and then get sick.

I had the same experience while researching which is what led me to do that. Private insurance of all kinds is a total scam in my opinion, they only care about profits and will never have your best interests at heart

I also just have a savings account for my pets, what pet are you trying to get insurance for?

@Red, seriously debating doing that. Based on my research someone has something. bad to say about every single pet insurance company.

So i have brought on a new 4yo Warmblood mare for a while now,but im having trouble with her bit issues.

She is currently on a French Link Snaffle and she is reacting really weirdly to it like she will roll it around,chew it and loads of other stuff and im a lilttle bit worried.

I have trained horses for 8yrs now and this has never happened to any of the horses i have trained or owned.

I was wondering if anyone could give me any tips on the bit choices

I love this snaffle for horses that show any problems with bits

https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/248/9086/10h/origin-d5.scene7.com/is/image/PetsUnited/TSLT900232_104813?wid=160&hei=160&fmt=jpeg&qlt=75,0&op_sharpen=0&resMode=sharp2&op_usm=0.9,1.0,6,0&iccEmbed=0&

It is a D-ring snaffle with a copper roll and I recommended it to a lot of people who had problems with their horses, snaffle wise ;)

Well, not sure if you would be open to it, but you could always train her bitless, depending on the training that you are doing. I know that I have a thoroughbred that used to do anything he could to resist bits, so I rode him bitless for about two years, but of coarse I was training him in western and english pleasure. I decided that I wanted to try jumping with him after the two years, and I wanted to use the bit again. So, I slowly re-introduced him to the bit, and I have a lot less problems with him having the bit now.

Just and idea. Some disciplines don't allow you to go bitless in the arena, but if you can do bitless, you could try it.

I'm assuming you've gotten her teeth floated recently? Sometimes that can be the problem, especially with younger horses who need floating every 6mos.

Have you tried a bosal or a rubber mouthed bit? :)
