Have you looked in to the Curost products?  My four year old used to itch his mane and tail out late spring of every year. By August he looked so moth eaten from all the sores on his body it was pitiful, no vet could give me a solution, just chalked it up to his anhidrosis.  I have had him on the products since last fall and so far, so good, he is even staying darker gold than normal.  He still isn't sweating normally but he is doing better considering how hot it is here, Dr. Schell didn't offer much hope on the anhidrosis but I guess just having a healthier horse is helping some.




?I am considering the hair evaluation from EquineHerbGirl, I am willing to gamble the $25 and the cost of whatever she suggests for a few months to see if we can get him sweating again.  I know how frustrating it is to see your horse miserable and you can't do anything to help.


Pour a can of beer in his feed every time you feed.. You will be surprised and how well it makes them sweat.

Been there, done that, lol.  I even tried a bottle of the Guiness Extra Stout twice a day and that stuff is expensive!  My poor hubby was drinking the cheap stuff and my horse was drinking $9 a six pack beer!  I am at a loss with this guy, trying a second box of Equiwinner as soon as it gets here, those did seem to help a little just didn't last.
