Natural Ulcer Protocol
“If you don’t make time for your horse’s wellness then you will be forced to make time for your horse’s illness.”
A wise horseman
The unfortunate truth in our industry is that horses were not really designed for what we do with them. We sit on the weakest part of their back and our herbivore friends have sensitive guts and are not designed for intermittent feeding or stall confinement among other things. On an average day your horse will produce 16 gallons of gastric hydrochloric acid. It is common to see ulcers in the lining of the upper or hind gut. This is a strange area to consult in and, to be clear, I am not a veterinarian; but I have amassed quite a bit of working knowledge. Whether it be an overly starchy diet, training stress, over-vaccination, de-worming medication, or the blue goblin in the arena corner, more horses have ulcers than not. I offer phone consultations and create schedules to wean your horse off meds completely, all while balancing the gut flora. I will teach you how to support your horse around stressful events and get them off those expensive ulcer meds hopefully forever! You will receive a full list of natural healing agents and what they do for the gut. I stay with you every step pf the way!
