I wish I'd known this 3 weeks ago. I just lost my horse "Finn" a 16.3hh Thoroughbred a week ago to Laminitis. He was an older gentleman, 28yrs and had other issues, Cushings being the other main problem. But this may have helped I feel.

It's kind of frustrating to have a pair of 'pasture' mares in my care for the past 15 years, and just now have to search for information, current treatments and a diet for one of my girls. I saw her limping this winter. The farrier said she had laminitis. She's and older pasture mare, has 16 acres to roam, and not overweight. I was saddened to hear the 16% sweet feed that they get a scoop of about 3 times a week all year long, with an apple or carrot, may have contributed to her condition. Why didn't I know this until now? Not blaming anyone but me, but one would think there would be more warnings or information out there considering how serious the condition can be. I guess I'm frustrated at just now having to search for information after the fact. In many cases, it's a little too late to save the horse. It seems too many others are searching for answers and treatments as well.
