We just got my husbands heeling horse back from the vet. She had a guttural pouch infection and is now on a powder antibiotic after 2 day of intravenous antibiotics but the stubborn horse won't eat it and I am out of ideas. I've tried putting the dry powder on her grain, I've tried soaking the powder in water first then putting in on her grain but she's refusing to go any where near it! So any advice would be welcome.

Thanks!!!!

You can dissolve the powder in water in a big syringe and squirt it in her mouth if the applesauce doesn't work.

 Mix with applesauce and shoot it onto back of her tongue with a dosing syringe.

I mix mine with molasses and squirt in their mouth, by the third time, the horses are looking for the syringe

I mix with pancake syrup and mix in feed. Mine eat anything well--even my picky eaters.
