Good to hear, thanks for the update!

Glad she’s improving. I’ve always been told zero hay x 5 days, soupy pellets and a bit of bute and grazing grass for those 5 days.

That’s a wonderful update…good luck going forward

After my hinny choked and vet cleared the blockage, I was left with a tube of banamine for throat irritation. My hinny developed a wet cough a few days after the episode, so went to the vet’s office and picked up SMZs for apparent infection caused by aspirating some of the flush water. I now feed his timothy pellets with some soaked bp–not that the soaked bp really dampens anything, but my hinny doesn’t really like the bp, so has to “lip” the pellets out of the beet pulp to eat them–he can’t gobble his bucket anymore. No more choke episodes.
