Kathy, You might try Orange Sugar Free Metamucil or the cheaper version Equate from Walmart. 1/4 th cup twice per day mixed dry in his food and provide plenty of fresh water for drinking. The vet recommended this to us for sand removal (we have very sandy soil and give to all our fjords for the 1st 7 days each month) and to one that sometimes has a messy butt. I can tell you it works, they really love it, and he will have a messy orange mustache from what sticks on his face. Watch out for unsolicited pony kisses. But since it is sugar free it doesn't attract bugs either. Glad he is doing well, Milli Ann TX ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 30 Sep 2010 20:21:42 -0400 From: <mypump...@windstream.net> Subject: Willi update This message is from: <mypump...@windstream.net> Hi all. Willi is doing very well! The hole in his hoof is all pink and filling in. The bandage changes are getting easier, although I think it will be quite some time before I can do it by myself. Question: we are on SMZs, 12 twice a day. The Vet whose house Willi is staying at says the surgeon put us on the "gold standard" of diarrea prevention, Bio Sponge twice a day and Probios once a day. So far no troubles. Willi does not like the Bio Sponge at all. Has anyone used a similiar product that may be more palatable? Thanks!
