Hello all-
I would love some help and suggestions. My mini mare has horrible allergies, she is scabbed on all her legs and has scab patches on her neck and shoulders. She itches constantly and will rub until she bleeds. Had two different vets out and they both thought it was culicoides and suggested fly spray 3 x's a day and benedryl. This does not seem to be helping and I am trying to avoid cortisteroids if at all possible. Unfortunately, I do not have a barn (only 3 sided shelter) so she can not be kept inside. Is there anything else I can give her? treat her with? a special wash? lotion? do the make mini fly leg wraps? any and all suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thank you!
