How to tell if your horse has ingested too much sand

Did you know a stethoscope can detect the familiar "scrunching" sound of sand moving in your horse's intestines? Too much sand in your horse's intestines can cause diarrhea, blockages and colic. Dr. Sharon Spier shows you a simple test you can do to measure the amount of sand your horse is excreting. Dr. Spier works in the Equine Field Service Department as well as the Department of Medicine and Epidemiology at U.C. Davis, CA. Visit them on-line at http://www.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/CEH and Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital Equine Clinic http://www.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/vmth/large_animal/equine/default.cfm.
