She was not happy about us treating the thrush because it is very uncomfortable for her. I gave her an apple afterwards.

Hopefully it clears up soon. I'll be applying treatment to it every other day until it's healed. I dished out like $60 on the good treatment, so hopefully it works

Aw thank you!

$60 and an apple sounds like a fantastic price for treatment.

It's better than vet bills! Hoping it won't take her long to get over the thrush.

does sandy have some favorite apple cultivars or is she indifferent and any apple is a candy for her?

She really likes the red delicious apples my parents get from the Amish Country in the fall. The apple she got today was some kinda red apple my neighbor got and didn't like. He gave me 2 bags of them the other day for the horses lol

I don't know anything about horses, so when I read thrush I was like, "Seems like a worse day for the bird."

Lmao. Thrush is a bacterial infection in the hoof of a horse.

Thrush is just a name for the infection. Immunocompromised people can get oral thrush.
