✨ QUIZ TIME ✨

Doughnuts may be a tasty treat but did you know we use a different sort of doughnut in veterinary practice?

When would you see Emily or Rachel using a "doughnut"?

Bonus if you can tell us why 😜

🚨🚨ULCERS🚨🚨

Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS) is a common condition affecting both happy hackers and sports horses alike. It's been reported to affect around 1 in 3 horses causing a variety of symptoms.

You may suspect ulcers if your horse has been experiencing recurrent episodes of colic, struggling to keep weight on or is showing behavioural changes both in-hand and under saddle. Even subtle dips in performance can be a sign. 🐎

How do I confirm if my horse has them?
The only way to accurately diagnose the presence of gastric ulcers is to pass a long camera called a gastroscope into the stomach to evaluate the stomach lining.

If you are worried that your horse may have gastric ulcers please get in contact! We are offering 50% off the price of gastroscopy on 22nd October at our gastroscope clinic, but spaces are filling up! ⌛

✨ GASTROSCOPE CLINIC✨

By popular demand we are going ahead with another gastroscope clinic! Save the date on your diaries, our next clinic takes place on 25th September 📆

To take place at our base near Kendal we are offering gastroscopes at HALF PRICE! That's £160 including sedation.

Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome has been found to affect 1 in 3 horses causing a wide range of signs and symptoms.

The only way to accurately diagnose ulcers is via gastroscopy, where we pass a long camera into the stomach to assess the health of the stomach lining. The picture below shows the stomach before ulcer treatment.

Diagnosis allows us to formulate an individual treatment and management plan to help you and horse 🐎

If you're interested in booking on please contact us at [email protected]

New clients are always welcome. We are also able to offer overnight stabling beforehand to make the starvation process easier for both you and your horse! 🏡

NOTE: We do also offer the facility to take our Gastroscope to you! If there is more than one person on your yard needing a gastroscope we can still apply a discount dependent on numbers 😎
