So what would you think... I have been finding out a couple of things lately - Let me start at the beginning. Bo has not been recovering very well and I have become sure that there is something more going on. So I talk to the vet again. He says I better take him to an equine specialist since he is basically a GP in the horse doctor area. (makes me wonder why I wasted my time with him) Anyway, I arrange to take Bo into an equine specialist vet. In researching him I realised this was the vet that Bo's previous owner had used, so when I phoned him I mentioned that he had seen Bo previously. "not for a long time" he says. Now according to my information the vet had been to check both boys teeth and give them thier shots before they came over here. (October 2011) I feel a bit mystified by this. OK , so about 2 weeks ago I had e-mailed the previous owner to check what she had wormed them with before they came. She says she used QUEST! Now I am thinking - is she serious (and if so I am so glad I found out not to use it) or did she not really worm them and is telling me what she uses on her big horse, not knowing any better - OR what?? If she did use quest -- is it possible that it could have dammaged him in some neurological way that showed up later. Going to run that by the vet. Taking Bo in a few days, that's the earliest he can see him. Talk about frustrating.
