Quecertin Complex and Nettles help me with my pollen allergies. Nettles is something that a horse could eat fresh if it grows in their pasture, but might skip since it stings. Dried it makes a tea that is actually a treatment for the stings.
This may be a little further out, but you can do EFT Tapping of accupuncture points on yourself for her, while touching her, for the allergies. www.emofree.com has a free manual. And details of surrogate tapping. Anything that supports the liver will help the immune system. Also if her thyroid is off it can cause immune deficiencies. Glucagon and Colostrum supplements are also very immune boosting. There are some homeopathic tree allergy remedies by Dolisos that are tinctures. Oh and if she is getting any carbohydrates like oats or other grains, that can be a problem for some horses. The Equine Cushings list on Yahoo is a good discussion list for more info on this and the possible fall out from sensitivity, even if there is no Cushings.
