🏫 We visited the most beautiful place today. It really was what dreams are made of 😍😍

🏫Very lucky to work wish such a variety of people, ponies and stunning scenic views.

🏫I'm going to put my hands together tonight and pray that the good lord blesses me with a yard like this one day, just for the stone work if nothing else 🙏

🏫I'll be chasing monies tomorrow so if you need to send a deposit or payment then be a doll and send it please, that would be super helpful, saves me messaging you 🙈

🪭Get ready with me Biosecurity style🪭

🪭Strangles has been confirmed in my region (not at any yards I'm visiting obvs but better to be safe than sorry) so here's a video of what precautions I take day to day
🪭I DO NOT see horses within 14 days of arrival
🪭I clean everything a lot
🪭I do not catch, turn out, stroke every fury nose on the yard
🪭I swap my footwear
🪭And last but not least... I don't visit my own horses after work.
🪭I'll do a seperate post on Strangles but long story short, it's horrific. So if we can all be clean beans to prevent the spread that would be fantastico.
🪭Also... Please be transparent if you have it. It's an awful condition and there's no shame, let's all work together and avoid any more horses getting it. This could literally save lives.

🪭Tina from Admin is having the night off tonight but we've got Kitty helping out instead

🪭Kitty belongs to my parents and is a wonderful 18 years of age

🪭I've managed to get back to 9 people about appointments this evening but it's now 9pm which is clock off time.

🪭I've also got some outstanding admin, reports and exercises to send. I haven't forgotten you, I'm just struggling to get logged on at moment keep finishing at this time every day but rest assured I'll get around to you 🧘🏽‍♀️

🪭I'll be in the Worksop, Armthorpe and Darrington areas tomorrow and no doubt demonstrating some shocking driving throughout 😂

🪭Have a good weekend everyone, peace and Love DT 💃

🚨Attending local shows 🐎 - advice regarding recent local Strangles cases🚨

Strangles is caused by a bacteria spread by droplet - when a horse coughs or snorts or indirectly spread through contaminated equipment and clothing. Do not mix equipment at shows and avoid contact with other horses, for example petting, sharing water buckets etc.

If your horse is stabled on a yard with confirmed Strangles cases, even if your horse is not showing clinical signs do not attend local shows.

If your horse is showing any of the below clinical signs, isolate your horse and do not attend local shows:
🌡 High Temperature over 38.5oC
💦 Purulent nasal discharge
🥱 Lethargy
😷 Swollen lymph nodes around throat

💉Vaccinate💉
Strangvac is a licensed intramuscular vaccine indicated to reduce the clinical signs and the number of abscesses within submandibular and retropharyngeal lymph nodes in horses during the acute stage of strangles. Vaccinated horses can still be infected with S.equi but will have a reduction in clinical signs in the acute infection stage.

☎️ If you would like to know more about Strangvac or have any concerns around travelling to local shows please do not hesitate to contact us on 01484421512 option 2.

🤕There's confirmed cases of strangles in the Barnsley and Doncaster areas

🤕As a result, I won't be seeing any horses that have moved homes/yards/owners in the last 14 days prior to the appointment

🤕Symptoms can take upto 14 days to present, allowing time to spread rapidly

🤕If you've seen it before then you'll know what an agonising disease it is, and if you haven't seen it before then consider yourself lucky

🤕I come from a very knowledgeable horsey family and even we've had horses die from it, it really does take no prisoners. So please be responsible, report cases, use biosecuriry and avoid transport and contamination where necessary. Much love DT 😘

🐶The wonderful Turnip paid me a visit tonight 😊

🐶Turnip is a working lab that has been for a maintenance session to keep her in top shape 💃

🐶I must say, she does the downward dog pose much better than I do, I might start going to her for my yoga from now on 😂
