So my horse had an abcess, probably 3 months ago on his rear heel/bulb. He now has a crack going from the back of his hoof to about 3 inches towards the center of his hoof. He hasn't been sore or acting like it's bothering him for the last weeks/months. But today he was limping a bit and acting like his feet were bothering him, so I picked out his hooves and was looking, poking at his crack and he jerked away pretty roughly. I do have the farrier coming out in a few days to trim and check it out. But everytime I've asked about his crack, I'm told it's fine, it's just going to take some time to heal because of the location. He is barefoot and I was debating asking if I should put shoes on his rear feet to help with the pressure, but I really do not want to put shoes on him. We don't do a lot of hard riding either. Anyone have any advice, ideas on how I can make him more comfortable if this is the issue? Cracks just freak me out, I feel like if it keeps going the way it's…

My three year old filly has kind of a long bulge around her naval area. I pressed it gently, and it doesn't seem to hurt her. It's kind of squishy. It looks like the fly's have really been going for that area, also. Might it be a hernia? Or allergy's? About last week I first noticed it and it was pretty small. It's gotten a lot larger over the week. There is a picture of it in My Corral uploads. http://www.equestrianlife.com/photos/1000007844600/56021 We're taking one of our horses to the vet to get preg checked tomorrow, so I'll ask him about it, also. I wanted to know what you guys think :)

Not so much a horse question...but who watches the PBR? This is the only type of rodeo I will watch and that's only because the bulls are treated like royalty when not bucking and most love what they do.

Has anyone got any advice for hayfever, as today i was riding & helped out at the stables with it being very much into summer i am beginning to get hayfever symptoms. It seems to be aggrivated by all the dust created by the hay and straw and when i am out riding in the beautiful countryside, it can be anoying when you are sneezing all the time and have trouble seeing as my eyes were so itchy. I have tried tablets but they don't seem to help much and make me a bit drowsy, which when i am out riding this can be a problem. Any advice or suggestions would be most helpful, as i would like to enjoy the lovely sunshine on horseback without feeling awfaul! x

How do you control your tick/bug problems? I spray my horses with repellent and I have chickens and guinea fowl to help keep the population down.
