⭐⭐ Monthly Theme - Competition Horse Management ⭐⭐

What should we pack in our equine first aid kit?

Veterinary provision at competition varies, some events will have a vet onsite, but many do not. The following items are a good idea for your show first aid kit:

1. Clean water and bucket (ideally a separate bucket to that used for drinking).
2. Cotton wool and hibiscrub (used dilutely to clean wounds).
3. Ice packs or ice boots if doing fast work.
4. Basic bandaging materials (contact layer such as melolin, sofban, cotton wool or gamgee and vet wrap).
5. Examination gloves for cleaning wounds etc. It is not always easy to find handwashing facilities, so being able to put on clean gloves minimizes contamination of any minor wounds.
6. Poulticing materials – if your horse pulls a shoe applying a poultice to travel home will pad foot and minimize bruising / risk of abscess.

⭐⭐ Foot Balance ⭐⭐

Spring grass is coming through fast, and while it’s a welcome sight, it brings challenges for our ponies. Rich grazing combined with the shift from soft winter ground to harder surfaces can quickly highlight hoof imbalances—and that’s when problems can start to show.

If your pony is feeling a bit short-strided, sensitive on firm ground, or just not moving as freely, now is the time to take a closer look.

An equine foot balance examination is a great opportunity to assess hoof health, movement, and overall balance before the demands of summer increase. Getting things right now can help prevent discomfort, support soundness, and keep your pony happy in their work.

🌱 Don’t wait for issues to appear—spring is the perfect time to prepare for a sound, comfortable summer.

The cost for our foot balance x-rays is now set at £250 inc. VAT, this includes 4 images of the feet (extras can be added at an additional cost if required), all images will be shared with and discussed with your farrier to make the very best plan for your horse or pony.

If you would like to book an appointment or have any queries then please get in touch with the office on 01295 670501 or email us at [email protected].
