Poor Cassella!So, just about a month ago, all 3 horses moved to Monroe. I hired a commercial hauler to move them. Turned out to be not such a good idea for Cassie!
A couple days after shipping, all 3 started to get the sniffles. Talked to my vet, and we put them all on Equinacea (Equilite product). A couple days after both Faith and Cabo appeared fine. Cassie, however, developed a cough, really bright neon yellow nasal discharge, and a 104.5 degree fever.
So, she's spent the last 10 days on SMZ's, electrolytes, and getting probed with the thermometer
She's doing much better now!I don't really know where she picked up this bacterial bug. I'm guessing it was the haul because both at the former barn, and this new barn- there is not much movement by way of horses coming and going... and no other horses are sick at either place. I'm just relieved that she's doing better!
