I wasn’t able to get many pictures this weekend but it was definitely a busy/fun one! I went up to the feathered horse classic in Jacksonville to help Shenandoah Gypsy Vanners get their horses ready for the show. Since I also had some free time in between I was also able to help Hanes performance horses prep some of their horses as well!

I’m already booked again with Shenandoah for the Southeast Gypsy Vanner Celebration in March and the Next FHC at WEC in May but if I have any free time I will be able to help others as well!

Preventing and treating Thrush!

The best prevention for thrush is keeping your horse in a clean and dry environment, regular trimming and inspecting the hooves daily. Regular trimming ensures you avoid the development of long heel conformation.

Treatment will depend on the severity of the thrush. If caught early on it will take 7-14 days to eliminate the thrush. More sever cases will take longer to treat.

Removing your horse from the wet and muddy conditions will be the first and crucial step to recovery. Putting them in a dry, clean stall will help a lot. Having a farrier out to clean the necrotic tissue and allow more air flow to the infected area will shorten the recovery time as well. Topicals like the ones in the pictures are all great ways to treat thrush.
There will be some cases where you might need a vets help for antibiotics or bute to help a horse recover. Also check with your vet to make sure your horse is up to date on the tetanus shot because tetanus could gain access through a damaged frog.
We carry treatments like the ones in the pictures in our grooming supplies for our grooming services. Contact us to help you keep thrush at bay!

What is thrush and what causes it?

Thrush is an infection of the horses frog. It often has a foul smell and black discharge. Can cause extreme pain and is often seen more in hind hooves. Lameness and swelling of the lower legs affected are common symptoms of thrush.
It is mostly caused by bacteria but it can also be fungal. One particular bacteria (fusobacterium necrophorum) is very aggressive, it will invade and destroy the frog exposing deeper tissues.
Horses that have thrush other stand in wet/ muddy paddocks or wet stalls. Water alone won’t cause thrush, but moisture mixed with dirty is a prime condition for thrush to flourish. Horses with long heels are often more prone to thrush as well, due to the conformation encouraging deep narrow frog sulci.
