    • For god's sake Curious that would take up an encyclopedia. Every situation is different, every horse is different what might work one day may not work another and also on another horse. I'm sure  Freda would be able to fill you in but when the subject is treatments, injections etc. its a taboo subject as far as open forums are concerned for any trainer.
    • Well some Pet Vets are a bit like some GP's.  Hooked by Big Pharma and isn't in their interests for your dog to be too well! A bit like my mates dog.  Steroid cream, regular injections and a very expensive shampoo all to treat a skin condition.  Didn't think that half the dogs problem was it was overweight and had circulation problems. But I didn't cancel my mate over it.  
    • I would say its not just pet owners but alot of vets aswell. Had an aunty whose dog dropped a back muscle about 10 months ago and the vet suggested no exercise for 3 months. Poor dog could barely run afterwards and retore it right away.
