Re: retired horse

Dr. Getty, So far Prince is doing pretty well. I am trying to get an equine dentist as he clearly needs one. Someone has suggested using a Blue Seal product called hay replacer. It melts in mouth when mixed with the horses saliva. It comes in a pellet form. I am following your other suggestions. What do you think about this also? Thankyou Gail Gilcher

Sorry, Dr. Getty. The product is called Hay Stretcher. Gail Gilcher

Hi Gail,

The Blue Seal Hay Stretcher is fine. Keep in mind that he'll still need the TC Senior to provide the nutritional supplementation that's necessary.

All the best,

Dr. Getty
