Product Tags



3 year old filly diagnosed with Shivers disease on the 14/10/2008. First showed signs in June 2008 in 1 hind leg.Within 4 months has progressed into both hind legs.Was bread at home. Both Sire, Dam and siblings show no signs. Very progressive so possibly EMND (Equine Motor Neuron Disease)or EPSM (Equine Polysaccharide Storage Myopathy). Both show simmilar symptoms and are believed to be linked with Shivers. Tests have shown that symptoms of EMND can improve by feeding a high fat, low Carbohydrate diet.Started her on Winergy Equilibrium- Low energy today (17/10/08) which is a high fat, low sugar, low carbohydrate diet.fingers crossed this will help my gorgeous girl
