And if you're referring to the paint mare, she does see the vet. Her subsequent cultures have been completely clean. It's plain old milk and there's no damage in her udder. She's on a hormone therapy to dry her up. We talked to the vet about using a mastitis treatment like cefa-dry and she did not recommend it. Too many side effects and she's seen treatments injected into the udder cause abcesses.

I didn't see the need to argue with people who were blasting me for following vet's orders with the mare.
