I lost a mare this week over getting her teeth floated. I had a Professional Equine Dentist over .Accually he came here looking for someone else.And him and his whife where from Texas and in the area doing some clinics and horses teeth.So I showed him my Angel Who had a 10 week old foal and was alittle under weight.So he drugged her and did the floating. My husband and I saw abite of blood and he said that is normal.By morning she was colicy.We got a hold of him.And he said can`t be what he did. Has to be something else. By the eveing she still had not drank or ate. Called the vet.Vet felt she was reacting to the Rompin, he gave.She was still out of it.2nd day her breath was just allfull.Still note ate and I was giving her water by a shring.3 rd day her breath was worse and her chin was pussy and red.Also was put on IV. 4th day no change,Still on IV. 5th day she was to week and sick.She was laid to rest.Uptopsy on her mouth showed her throught was swollen and almust closed by puss.I had always had my vet do the floating but thought I try this so called "" Prof "".Vet figures he may have not cleaned his tools.Sorry for the long speech. I am still sad about this,on what went wrong
If anyone want the name of the guy.Email me. He is traveling around. Oh yea I saw him drive by this afternoon and he never came to see us.Heartless
