Have you ever had or know of a horse that has a hearing deficit in one or both ears. This includes partial as well as fully deaf.
How was this discovered? How did the horse act? What was the cause if known?
By the way, just because…

Hi and thanks for all of these questions. We all here hope you feel better!
I will add this to my list of questions for Monday’s AMA.
When you get a chance, go to your profile and change your name from “User 1623119635” to a name we can all call you. Mine is “Doc T” and some use their 1st name and last name initial.
THANK YOU!!

Hi there. My question is this … I did the two week no grain challenge, however, when I started my three horses on soaked alfalfa pellets, I purchased soybean meal at my feed store who threw it in my car.

Back in 1975 a TB stallion at our barn covered a mare and upon dismounting, circled and died on the spot. Our own TB stallion died suddenly – found in the paddock one morning with grass in his mouth. The sudden death of Thoroughbreds has been around for a while and there is no causation yet determined for sudden death. Is it just in stallions?… Read more
