Re: question
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'd washed them with shampoo and waited 4 days until they were dry. But I changed the pads to Equitex-pads which you can wash in the machine and dried after one day. Also, A'simi lost his hairs behind the saddle from those fleece pads. It will not fit with his hair and through to an electricity between fleece and hairs they were broken.

This message is from: "Jean Gayle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Kate I just gathered up every horse blanket, pads, doggie coats, bedding blankets and towels in the barn and garage and sent them to the laundry. It was $127 but worth every bit of it. Now when a horse decides to lie down or roll he is in trouble. I want those blankets to stay clean.

This message is from: Mariposa Farm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I use a big commercial plastic laundry hamper and a big stick to "swish them around" Kind of like a big tub on wheels. Works great. I did try to bring them in to our local laundry mat once and got "busted" by the old lady who watches the place! Since then the big tub works just fine.

Happy Thanksgiving to all - Peg Peg Knutsen - Ellensburg, WA http://www.eburg.com/~kffjord/ -- Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2001 17:59:17 -0800 From: "Jean Gayle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: toadstools This message is from: "Jean Gayle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This week my mare who is never ill or off became quite ill, not eating and showing discomfort. Her stools were very moist, slightly formed and small amounts. Fever of 101 and not eating. No gut sounds. Banamine and two visits from the Vet. Next day same and a rectal exam found lots of pockets of gas but no sign of a twist. She was showing only slight signs of gut pain but then she is a warm blood. However she would suddenly lie down, but not roll or look at her flank. I worried that it might have been her hay, new and second cutting, but she never had trouble before. Also I live on a road and the children meet their school bus at my fence and could have given her something. She improved on the third day and today is not her complete self but munching a bit more. Gut sounds too and no fever. A blood test showed her white cells down implying there was an infection somewhere. She received one large shot of penicillin on her third morning. Now today when I walked to the neighbors to get his mail as he is on vacation, I saw many toadstools in her pasture under the tree where they stand to get away from the rain. I have never seen them in such quantity nor in that area. They may be mushrooms, they are small. Has anyone any knowledge about what these might do to a horse? They have been knocked over or crushed by hooves and I am sure there is grazing in the area.
