Spring Pasture Tip for Horse Owners 🌱

When fresh grass starts coming in, it can be tempting to let horses graze all day.

But sudden pasture changes can upset their digestion and cause their feet to get sore.

A good rule of thumb:
Start with 15–30 minutes of grazing per day and gradually increase over 1–2 weeks.

Learn more about how your middle age to older horses (including ponies and donkeys) can be at risk for metabolic conditions such as Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS) or PPID/Cushing's disease and what we can do to help in regards to their diet and feet. https://youtu.be/DbuMfjxuBzU

This helps horses adjust safely to richer spring grass. 🙌

Have you started turning horses out yet?

Spring is coming!!! I think? 😅
Make sure you horse is up to date on its basic health needs to get them ready for any upcoming activities you have planned for this year.

Are these to-do’s on your list? ⬇️
🩺 Schedule an exam with your veterinarian to evaluate your horse's health and develop a vaccination plan. In Minnesota, we recommend five core vaccines to start: West Nile, Eastern equine encephalomyelitis, Western equine encephalomyelitis, Tetanus, and Rabies.
💉 Do not forget to have your veterinarian perform a Coggins test. Proof of a negative Coggins test within 12 months is needed for all horses going to public events or traveling across state lines.
🔬 Have a f***l egg count taken and work with your veterinarian to develop a spring deworming plan.
🦷 If needed, schedule a dental float to smooth sharp points on teeth and help correct poor alignment ahead of grazing and riding season.
