My horse has a heart problem...? - two year old just found heart murmur
My 24-year-old mare has a heart murmur. I learned that in June and had to withdraw at the beginning ... So I could not go to the County Fair ... Well, I am very worried about his horse, still ... I know that it can probably still go, but I fear I run or push it too ... I had horses for nearly two years, so I know the basic ... Lope I know its not entirely or largely ..... Overcoming the fear of "pushing her death?" It was my first horse and it is an absolute love ... so that means I'm just very cautious Lord and everything ....

I'm sorry to hear that ... My suggestions are to walk to it, perhaps, some jogging, so you can practice. Then call TLC and spending time with her until she takes .. Last Breath, or if it's bad to put down ... If she suffers, I suggest you ask, not in pain. Do not go back, you do not need, based on their backs ... I will you in my prayers. Good luck

First step, take a deep breath. I assume the vet diagnosed a heart murmur? If not, have a conversation with him about what kind of staying power and what can and what not. Sometimes leaving the sound is functional, but I want that competition, the possibility to ride just do not push it could still clearly visible - if it slows, stock. I had a mare that we continue to travel until she was 28, as it was in receipt of 2 days to recover from a walk on the tarmac for just over 2 miles. We're totally out of retirement at the time, and finally put 2 years later, when his heart began to fail. But we enjoyed our time with the beautiful mare, even on foot into the grass, head to the neck. It was very Loving. Fortunately, on this property, their children, 2 of them and us [is now 10 years old].
Their fear of "pushing the death" is not a bad thing. Just take it easy. If you have a car an easy walk with you on the back, so a walk. The largest number is not pushing here. When you begin to slow down or let stand for shortness of breath. The chance is below it's pretty thin. This is no longer an athlete.
I would ask my vet. If you are a small indicator light, slow travel of short duration should be no problem. If your horse is still running at lunchtime, I think it would be nice to drive. If you are a heavier rider, or how much running, I put my mare. It is time to withdraw completely.
I want to ask your veterinarian about restrictions on his horse, because she can still walk and run and, maybe more. There are several types of heart murmur in horses and an aorta "deficiency" is the lowest blow of them and generally not a physical problem and may be associated with age. Ask your veterinarian category and represent the sums as it belongs to. Once you have this information, then you can help make an informed decision on horse riding and exercise. Blues Murmurs may have no effect on a horse to ride for pleasure used to be.
I suggest you take it to a university and have an ECG on her with an action Doppler. These things that I had my mare, my first horse. One day fell on the post and we wanted colicking, but the vet came out and you (heart murmur nobody knew what it was and they did not buy when I was a few months earlier) was so serious, what is a "palpable excitement" --- This means you can take your hand on his chest instead of your heart and place really feel the wave of blood, because the sum was so bad - you can make your heart beat faster, not only virbating.
Therefore, there was an echo-Doppler and deed (the Doppler blood flow in the heart remains), and the university wasCompleted are 4 valves (which are 6 in difficulty around the heart), and the blood flows through the 4 chambers of the heart, as the control of one-way traffic.
6 months later, was euthanized followed by a stroke, massive heart attack.
I'm not saying that every time when it *, but it is very important now to get your heart tested. These tests are performed with ultrasound, and only $ 400 for the assessment of my mare, Cornell University. This is not expensive.
They give a definitive reference on the exact status of your mare.
And his horse, she told me what they can do ....... I moved my mare (especially) after evation - Before I ran again, and she fell with me 3 times, until it falls on me. He was examined by the veterinarian and farrier, every time. After the evaluation, took the opportunity to me on the back of the clarity of short haul flights. Sometimes I had to get up and walk a lot - they want to gallop and everything, but I did not want to leave. I usually only accessible by foot, sometimes at a trot - X, so small she trots. Frankly, I think he has a little joy - the spirits always high.
One day, however - he has resisted - and only accessible on foot. Also around to bite on his left leg, the leg, which was near his heart. And I'm down. I knew what that meant. I go again, and 8 weeks later he was gone.
It is right to think it is too weak to go on now, and if it were me, I would replace the horse at that time to retire, too. It is hard to say what you can do too much exercise do for them. A stroll through the village could be something that can be a shock, you never know. You need a quiet place, time of peace. A large part of the preparation, massage, and only your love would be great. If you are in a lively area of operation, go to a quieter area. Try to think, all the tension to a minimum, if you can. Good luck to you both.
First, 24 is not really a retirement plan for most horses. I know that some horses are healthy and fit enough to continue working in their 30s, but it is more the exception than the rule. When a horse was younger, I would invest in some blood tests and an electrocardiogram to determine the severity of the blow, but at 24 years and if you know your competition days are the best choice for you is just leave it. This does not mean, you can not go on the road trip from time to time, provided a calm horse that tends not to scare them. However, experiments in unfamiliar terrain. If they can not handle something caught, and her heart, it could be a disaster. Personally, I was a horse like this to go together in retirement. However, grassTalk with your veterinarian to see what she is capable. Regardless of any increased work that you do, the risk of events.
For me, it looks like heart failure. With increasing age of the "buzz" and if they are wasting energy and actually contribute to the diagnosis.
Horses with this condition is not recommended to be installed, how could "in every moment. However said, I have 2 CHF mule had to go out because she was too sick one with the disease. Diagnosed They lived on a pension for 4 years after the grass is.
Please take the nearest vet.
She needs professional help before it's too late.
Good luck.
