LOL, I think our ...Spoken like a true horse owner! LOL, I think our motto is, "if it doesn't work, just throw more money at it!" Actually possessing said money does not seem to be relevant... Adequan actually takes about six weeks to implement physiologically significant change and continues working long-term as long as the horse is on it. It's fantastic stuff, I love it, Solo also stayed on that during his competition career. When I worked out the per month cost, it was the same as the feed-throughs, but I KNEW the stuff was going where it needed to go and it had TEH SCIENCEZ to back it up. Love, love, love (want to inject self, sigh)!<br /><br />You've probably already figured this out too, but it's much cheaper to buy the big 10-dose vial than the 7-pack. When I was using it, it was cheapest through SmartPak. Allivet is a great source too -- both nicely just keep the call-in Rx on file so I can just click to spend more money, woot! eventer79https://www.blogger.com/profile/03160817772061132147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3204283740895921092.post-29358934536834553962014-11-06T06:03:02.031-06:002014-11-06T06:03:02.031-06:00What a great vet for loving on him!

Rico was injected quite a bit in the last couple of years and it made a huge difference. I also did legend injections right before both of his Grand Prix's. I'm a big fan of joint injections- it allows the horse to continue doing what they like to do comfortably. <br /><br />The only joint feed through supplement that I have had work is Hylasport. It's pricey though, so legend/adequan may be better bang for your buck.

There was a short term (high demand) problem a while back, but then, when I was using Adequan, the production facility closed down for nearly a year. Everyone was scrambling and that's when I found Pentosan. <br /><br />I've had better results comfort wise, and the price is right.

Thanks to Erica, Solo just had his hocks done for the first time in about a year this fall. I swear it took ten years off. He looks & feels fabulous! I regularly injected every six months (after feeling him out for what he needed) when we were competing.<br /><br />I used to be one of those OMG INJECTIONS ARE BAD people. Until I was educated about them. <br /><br />Just a note about Legends - it only stays in the horse's system for about 24-48 hours, so it's more of a band-aid, while Adequan works over time. You probably know that, but just in case you need to save some money... :)eventer79https://www.blogger.com/profile/03160817772061132147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3204283740895921092.post-40886369099488362362014-11-04T15:58:25.982-06:002014-11-04T15:58:25.982-06:00good to hear that he recovering! and: remember, I ...good to hear that he recovering! and: remember, I am doing the stretches, too, after paying good money for massages to the physio as well ;) but they definitely help!Dressage Haflhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11239158901871285798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3204283740895921092.post-49034797393752404572014-11-04T13:12:02.482-06:002014-11-04T13:12:02.482-06:00Yep, fingers crossed that we can maintain him happ...Yep, fingers crossed that we can maintain him happily long-term.
