Why do annual wellness exams matter? 🩺

Horses are masters at hiding discomfort, and many health concerns can develop gradually and go undetected. Routine scheduled wellness exams allow us to establish a health baseline, monitor changes over time, and begin treatment plans early if necessary before concerns turn into bigger problems.

During a wellness visit, your veterinarian will evaluate your horse from nose to tail, checking for subtle changes that may not be obvious day-to-day. Early detection of issues such as dental disease, lameness, weight changes, heart abnormalities, or metabolic conditions can lead to more effective treatment and better outcomes.

Annual wellness exams also ensure your horse is up to date on:
💉 Vaccinations
🪱 Parasite control recommendations
🦷 Dental care
🌾 Nutrition and weight management
♥️ Senior horse health monitoring

Preventive care today can help avoid more serious and costly problems tomorrow. Contact our clinic to schedule your horse’s annual wellness exam and partner with us in keeping them healthy for years to come! 🌟

Contrary to common beliefs— weight loss is not just part of aging 🤔💡

Weight loss in senior horses often signals an underlying issue such as:
➡️ Dental disease
➡️ Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction (PPID/Cushing’s disease)
➡️ Pain
➡️ Parasites
➡️ Nutritional deficiencies

Don’t assume that “old age” is the cause— many conditions can be managed successfully when identified early to help your senior horse live a long and healthy life. We are happy to help!

Do you have concerns about your senior horse or donkey going into winter? Give us a call at ☎️226-755-0785 or email at 📧[email protected]
