Kisses wants to know if it’s Friday yet?

We've tried everything for fly protection. It's all either expensive, messy, useless, problem-causing or has a very short positive effect for donkeys. We've followed every idea we've heard of and set out Irish Spring soap, sprayed barn walls with Pine Sol and Fabuloso, used garlic supplements (huge failure!), installed traps of various kinds and tried many types of roll-ons, sprays and other products on the donkeys themselves and haven't found any of them to be a real solution or, in some cases, to make a difference at all. We've tried a couple of types of fly boots but they either wouldn't stay on, created blisters or were so hot that they caused their own problems. We do use Fly Predators and believe that they make a huge difference in the quantity of flies that are here but the donkeys' legs are still vulnerable without more protection. They are itchy, bleed, lose hair and eventually have open sores from biting themselves out of discomfort and frustration.

We found ways to turn women's leggings into donkey pants and those help many of the donkeys a lot. They get really dirty, tear and don't last very long but they do help tremendously. However, some of our donkeys benefit the most from these mesh leggings. We have a wonderful friend willing to make them but we haven't been able to source the rubber binding needed for the top and bottom, and other fabrics we've tried (like fleece) don't hold up as well or leave rub marks. That was last summer's experiment!

Cinnamon is modeling the style that we have found works the best. We are down to 2 1/2 pairs total and as you can see, even they aren't in great shape now. They are expensive but one set of four usually helps two donkeys because most of them need them only on the front legs. If anyone is interested in donating a set and helping two donkeys feel less miserable, here is the link -- PONY SIZE, please:

If you'd like to donate so that we can purchase them directly, feel free to use the donate button on this post or you can donate through our PayPal or Venmo with a note "Fly boots". Thank you!

Enough of this heat and the flies that come with it. We're ready for fall already!

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO TELL IF YOUR HORSE IS IN DISTRESS?

As a horse owner, it's imperative you know how to recognize problems and respond promptly. It's important to know what conditions require veterinary attention, and how to take appropriate action while you're waiting for the veterinarian's arrival.

Types of emergencies you and your horse may encounter on your journey together include colic; lacerations and bleeding wounds; impaled objects or nails in the foot; acute lameness due to conditions ranging from hoof abscess to fractures, laminitis, tendon injuries and more; eye injuries; allergic reactions; choke; and even foaling emergencies.

No matter what you may face in the future, getting to know your horse's normal vital signs (including temperature, pulse and respiration) as well as its normal behavior patterns will help you become a good observer, so that you readily recognize signs of ill health. Being prepared is in your horse's best interest.

Always remember, your veterinarian is one of your best resources. Talk to them about how they can be reached after-hours, and about recommendations for an emergency plan suitable for your individual situation.
