Meep.Meep - 2017-07-07 9:17 AM Would like to see people quit "upping" their horses to run. If they don't have it to give, then don't try to manufacture it. And I find it wrong for a vet to recommend giving winstrol for performance enhancement....

Do power lifters take pre-workout because they don't want to lift as much as they can? Or do they take it to give them an extra boost of energy to work harder, more easily?

Are power lifters humans and have a choice to what they put into their bodies? Sorry but I will never agree with performance enhancing drugs, especially steroids. The use of performance enhancing drugs in the barrel horse industry is really getting out of hand.

If that is your arguement, you can't really support any part of our industry. I highly doubt horses are born WANTING to be barrel horses?! Or do I feel like they consciously choose to be a part of any sporting event?! It's not a matter of trying to manufacture heart or try that a horse is lacking, but a matter of keeping them feeling their best. Do I condone the use of steroids? Not so much. Is it my place to judge what someone else does? Absolutely not.

Not manufacture heart/try. Manufacture the speed/endurance that some horses don't have. I am all for keeping horses feeling good and healthy! I am not all for masking problems with drugs, or giving horses drugs to for the sole purpose of greed/money. I find it sad that a vet would recommend giving a lazy sweet little horse STEROIDS. So, because I don't think that horses should be on drugs/steroids then I can't support barrel racing?

Location: Oklahoma		Look up iron defencies and too much iron. Same symptoms I learned the hard way I was giving my horse red cell and he got depressed and lack of energy. Pulled him off it and he has energy and not depressed and if I feed any supplement with iron in it I can tell within 12 hours so now I make sure no iron.

I know the mare. She is capable of going faster but needs that boost at the moment. I KNOW her rider would do nothing to intentionally hurt her. I don't see how giving her a boost to show her she can go fast is wrong.

Location: Texas		I would ask what is in the "rodeo build up". It may just be some b12 and other things to keep him from getting run down. I would ask for more info before I decided what I wanted to do.
