🐴 Friday Wellness Tip: Don’t Ignore “Small” Changes

Subtle changes are often the first sign something isn’t right. Pay attention if your horse is:

• Less eager to work
• Slightly off performance
• Eating more slowly
• Resisting under saddle
• Acting “not quite themselves”

Early intervention often means easier treatment and better outcomes.

Trust your instincts. If something feels off, it’s always worth checking.
Have a safe and healthy weekend! ✨

⚠️ Laminitis Alert ⚠️

We’re seeing an abnormally high number of laminitis cases this spring.

With all the recent rain, grasses are growing quickly and often contain higher sugar and starch levels, especially after sunny days and cool nights. This can increase laminitis risk in susceptible horses.

Higher-risk horses include:
• Ponies, miniatures, and donkeys
• Overweight / easy keepers
• Horses with Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction (Cushing's Disease)
• Horses with Equine Metabolic Syndrome or insulin dysregulation

Warning signs to watch for:
⚠️ Reluctance to move or turn
⚠️ Shifting weight between feet
⚠️ Standing “rocked back”
⚠️ Heat in the feet
⚠️ Increased digital pulses
⚠️ Soreness on hard ground

Reduce risk by:
✔️ Screening bloodwork for at-risk horses
✔️ Limiting grazing time / using a grazing muzzle
✔️ Avoiding sudden diet changes
✔️ Monitoring weight closely
✔️ Testing hay when possible

Early detection makes a huge difference. If you notice any of these signs, contact your veterinarian right away as prompt treatment can greatly improve long-term outcome. 🐴💚

April has been rough on feet

Are you seeing more thrush, abscesses, or soft soles right now?

Quick tips to stay ahead:
• Pick feet daily
• Watch for subtle lameness or “just not right” movement
• Keep high-traffic areas as dry as possible

If your horse suddenly comes up sore, don’t assume it’s just the footing as spring is prime time for abscesses, and we are seeing a ton this spring.

📩 Message us if you’re unsure what you’re seeing, we’d rather catch things early and help get your horse on the road to soundness again!

Today is World Veterinary Day 🐴🐶🐄
Veterinary medicine is more than caring for animals, it’s caring for people too.
From protecting animal welfare, to supporting our clients, to safeguarding the food systems we all rely on, veterinarians play a critical role in public health every single day.
Behind every healthy horse, safe meal, and thriving farm is a team dedicated to doing the right thing, even when it’s not easy.
To all the veterinarians, technicians, and support staff, thank you for the work that often goes unseen but impacts everyone.
