🌱 Clover Slobbers in Horses 🐴💧

Ever notice your horse drooling excessively after grazing? It might be clover slobbers!

👉 What it is:
Clover slobbers happen when horses eat clover (usually red clover) infected with a fungus called Rhizoctonia leguminicola. This fungus produces a toxin (slaframine) that stimulates salivary glands, causing lots of drool.

⚠️ The Good News:

It looks messy but usually isn’t dangerous.

Most horses stay healthy and the drooling stops once they’re off infected clover.

🩺 When to Call Your Vet:

If your horse shows other signs (colic, diarrhea, weight loss, or not eating).

If you’re unsure what’s causing the excessive drool.

💡 Prevention Tip:

Rotate pastures and avoid overgrazed areas.

Mow pastures to reduce clover dominance.

Offer hay if pasture conditions are poor.

🐴 Myth Busting Monday! 🐴
Myth: “Horses only need their teeth floated when they're having trouble eating.”
Fact: By the time your horse is showing signs of dental trouble, like dropping feed or losing weight, dental disease may already be advanced.

💡 Horses should have their teeth checked at least once a year—even if they seem fine! Uneven wear, sharp points, or dental abnormalities can cause pain, ulcers, and behavioral issues long before noticeable symptoms appear.

🦷 Preventative care = healthier horses, better performance, and longer lives.
📅 Schedule regular dental exams with your equine vet!

👩‍⚕️🐴 Equine Education in Action! 🐴👨‍⚕️
At Westview Veterinary Hospital, we believe that hands-on learning is the cornerstone of great veterinary care. Our students are gaining real-world experience with equine patients—whether it's using ultrasound to evaluate tendons or learning safe handling and examination techniques in the barn.

These future veterinarians are learning not only the science, but also the art of working with horses—building trust, patience, and clinical confidence with every exam.

📚🐎 Because every great vet starts with a great foundation!

🪰🐴 Fly Season is Here — Is Your Horse Protected? 🐴🪰

Summer means longer days, sunny rides… and flies. 😩
These pests aren’t just annoying — they can cause real problems for your horse’s comfort and health.

🚨 Why Flies Are a Problem:
• Transmit diseases like Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA)
• Cause painful bites, skin irritation, and allergic reactions
• Contribute to summer sores and eye infections
• Attract parasites like habronema (the culprit behind proud flesh)

✅ Fly Control Tips:
🧼 Keep stalls and paddocks clean
🧴 Use fly sprays or spot-on treatments
🧢 Fly masks and sheets for added protection
🌬️ Fans in the barn help deter them
🪟 Consider feed-through fly control or biological traps

🩺 And don’t forget — fly season is also a good time to check your horse’s deworming schedule and vaccination status.

Let’s keep your horses happy and healthy all season long!
