Giving a Horse Vitamin C - Horse Jerking Reins Discussed - Rick Gore Hor...

http://www.thinklikeahorse.org/

I talk about giving your horse Vitamin C, 1500 mg twice a day, when they are sick or fighting off an infection. I also talk about someone asking for help since they think their horse is jerking the reins out of their hands. A horse cannot jerk a loose rope out of a hand that is not holding it too tight and does not understand release.

As always, consult your vet when it comes to the health and care of your horse, I am sharing what I do and what works for me and in my experience what is good. Lots of different beliefs out there so research, learn and study so you can do what is best for your horse.

Buddy and Mr. T you are good boys. :)
