I am trying to assist a 4-H'er in preparing a leg wrap presentation. We are looking for references to distinguish the difference between brace bandages, standing wraps, polos, etc. We know the answers but need documentation and further research resources.

Is there any documentation showing effects of ivermectin dewormers on summer hair coats? I have noticed a difference in horses' hair coats when they are used. The coats were roughed up, as if body clipped, and, in fact, I was told by two vets that ivermectin products shouldn't be used when hair coat appearance is important, such as showing/halter, etc. I was told that they should only be used in late fall/winter.

My 10-year-old Missouri Foxtrotter mare with a mild case of Cushing's disease grass foundered five years ago, but with rapid, excellent treatment, her feet are fine. She has a cresty neck, stays fat on nothing, and did not shed well this summer (first time). I have noticed that she is not as muscular along her topline and hindquarters, but I had been contributing that to not enough riding. What can I feed or administer to her at this stage to avoid full-blown Cushing's disease and help with the current condition? I've read about using Chaste Tree Berry, other "natural" products, and pergolide (which I understand is expensive and must be used for a lifetime).

My horse is losing her mane hair, and this doesn't appear to be the result of rubbing. The bare skin on her mane has specks of a brown flaky substance. The hair appears to be almost falling out, and the hair doesn't seem to be growing back. Could this be the result of a parasite?

Would it be safe to administer 3 to 5 cc's of Banamine (intramuscular) to a 1000+-pound horse for relief of arthritic pain in the hocks and lower hind legs, especially during stormy weather (the condition is worse during this time)?
