DB> My horse has a cough that won't go away. His left nostril runs, his
DB> nose sounds stuffed up, his breathing is labored at rest. He has no
DB> fever, eats good, weight is a little low but good. His energy level
DB> fluctuates. We are in Western WA.
DB> This is Very frustrating. I have taken him to 3 Vets and the Tacoma
DB> Equine Hosptal. They all seem to think it might be allergy/Heaves and
DB> have treated him with Sulfa ,antihistimenes and Steroids. It helps a
DB> little, but he goes right back after treatment. I have changed his
DB> feed between grass hay,timothy,and alfalfa. They have low dust,no mold
DB> and we have tried wetting it down. I have put him in different fields,
DB> locked him in and out of the stable,and changed the bedding type.
DB> If anyone has any suggestions, please write. I am running out of
DB> ideas and money.
