Hello Laree: I have written to you privately about Lutalyse. But I think the rest of the list members may be interested. Lutalyse is a prostaglandin that is used to synchronize mares' estrus. This is basically for purposes of breeding when you can have a stallion for only a short time and have several mares you want to breed to him. But if given right after an accidental breeding (intramuscular, please) it will make the mare come right back into estrus, flushing any pregnancy that might have occurred. The mare will sweat and possibly cramp briefly after you give this but the discomfort does not last long at all. You need to get it from a vet and please ask for the dosage; I don't remember. Frankly, I think that going to court over this is going a bit overboard. I feel you should ask the stallion owner to pay for the Lutalyse and to reinforce the fencing. If he does not do this, then you may consider going to court. I think you would genenrate a lot of ill-will if you were to go to court without first trying to settle the problem between you.
