snoopy - 2014-10-14 7:23 AM He is an older horse so I started him on 1/4 pill of prevocox sp? a day, I will inject him in the spring, but even when he has run out of the gate he doesn't want to stop, and the other lady was right, no amount of muscle or strength will stop a horse if he doesn't want to, I have always tried to pull him to the left afterward, on the day of my wreck, someone said I wasn't sitting down in the seat asking him to stop, well I'm sorry but when it got to the point of him running away, my seat was the last thing on my mind!! I would try the open field, but again not sure he would stop, I might have to practice in the closed pen at home as long as I can before snow, then get him injected
Why do you want to continually work the horse at home prior to injections? This is backwards thinking, if the pain, inflammation is already there it is just going to make things worse. Get the horse injected then work on closed gate at home.
My thinking was that the prevocox would help with any pain he may have temporarily till I do get him injected. Didn't know if I wanted to get him injected this time of year.
