Dr. Markey originally created this list of enrichment ideas for our equine patients recovering on stall rest… but we quickly realized something important:

Play is for every horse—anytime, anywhere.

Whether your horse is on restricted turnout, comes into a stall overnight, is showing, racing, or just needs a little more mental stimulation in their day—adding enrichment makes a real difference.
- Reduces boredom
- Lowers stress
- Decreases gastric inflammation & ulcers
- Helps prevent stereotypic behaviours
- Improves handling & overall wellness

Want the full list of simple, vet-approved ideas?

📩 Comment PLAY and we’ll send you our free enrichment PDF!

We’re incredibly grateful to PATH Equestrian for providing the photos in this guide. Thank you for helping us bring these ideas to life!

Right on schedule, Potomac Horse Fever (PHF) has been reported in parts of Ontario this season. We want to keep you informed — not alarmed.

PHF cases typically appear in late summer and early fall, and so far, the number of cases we’re seeing this year is consistent with previous years.

PHF is caused by Neorickettsia risticii and spreads when horses accidentally ingest aquatic insects that carry the bacteria. While cases remain uncommon, warm, wet conditions can increase insect activity which can increase the risk.

What to watch for:

Fever (39–41°C)
Reduced appetite or gut sounds
Diarrhea (common in cases)
Laminitis (less common)

The good news?
With early veterinary care, most horses respond well. There is a vaccine that can help to reduce severity of illness if your horse is exposed.

Prevention tips:
• Clean water troughs frequently and reduce standing water.
• Turn off barn lights at night (bugs love light).
• Keep an eye on your horse’s overall health.

If you have questions or want to talk through your horse’s care, we’re always available at (905) 351-1425. If your horse seems healthy and shows no symptoms, there’s no need to panic.

Is it time to call the vet… or can it wait? 🤔
We get this question a lot, and the truth is, sometimes it’s hard to know.

That’s why we’ve put together a quick guide with common red flags you should never ignore.

From colic signs to eye issues and sudden lameness, this is the kind of information that can make a difference.

💡 Save this post to keep on hand. Share it with a fellow horse owner. And remember, we’re just a call or text away when you need us.

✨Three Vets, One Goal: Your Horse’s Health✨
At Full Circle, you're not just getting one vet's opinion, you’re getting a team. 🐴💡
Behind every appointment is a collaborative effort. Dr. Molson, Dr. Caldwell and Dr. Markey work closely together—discussing cases, reviewing diagnostics, and leaning on each other’s specialties to ensure your horse gets the most well-rounded care possible.
Whether it's a tricky lameness case, a puzzling metabolic concern, or figuring out the best long-term management for your athlete—we put three minds to work for one horse.
You might only see one vet at the appointment, but know that there's a team behind the scenes, thinking, reviewing, and supporting every decision made.
Your horse deserves nothing less. 🤍

Support your horse’s comfort and performance with Veterinary Spinal Manipulation Therapy (VSMT) and acupuncture—certified, compassionate care right at your barn.

- Optimize performance
- Aid in recovery or manage chronic conditions

Whether your horse is competing, rehabbing from an injury, or enjoying retirement, each treatment is tailored to their individual needs for the best possible results.

Curious if your horse could benefit from VSMT or acupuncture care?
Call us at (905) 351-1425 — we’d love to chat!

☀️With the heat wave still in full swing, it’s more important than ever to keep an eye on your horse’s hydration. ☀️

If you’re noticing any warning signs — like prolonged skin tenting, dry gums, or a drop in water intake — don’t wait. Dehydration can quickly lead to serious issues, including colic.

Make sure water sources are clean, shaded, and always full.

For horses sweating heavily or in work, electrolytes and salt are great additions to feed and help with maintaining hydration.

🩺 🚙 We’re out on the road all week helping horses stay safe and cool — reach out if your horse needs a hydration check or summer wellness visit!
