Is it sand colic?

[B&B Happy goats]

But I'm only a kid and need my parents to approve (upsettingly)

Can you call the or somehow get in touch with them ? I sure would hate to see your horse die, ...

he was foaming green saliva, and he has diarrhea. BAD. He also is dehydrated and won't drink much

Is it coming from mouth or nose?

If nose, could be choke -- something stuck in throat, he's not drinking -- maybe can't.

Sand colic CAN cause diarrhea -- don't know where you live but if fed from ground, OR pastures very short, dirt/sand can build up in gut. BAD but can be taken care of with Sand Clear -- available TSC or most feed stores. Beet pulp fed fairly regularly can also prevent more of these issues. It helps attach to & remove much sand.

EITHER choke &/or colic is life threatening. You need a vet.

I have called a vet and am waiting for them to call me back... I will meet them at my barn today. Do any of you know Dr. John Smart?

Thanks for the help and support, I owe you guys! Casper got into some weeds yesterday on the trail ride, we need to keep an eye out for signs of colic. If I can help you guys with advice in a thread, give me the link, or anything else I can do...

I hope your Casper is ok. I have a 30 year old cremello QH gelding, the love of my life. I was once a kid with a horse, I get where you are coming from.

If he is that old he must be living a crazy healthy life
