Everyone knows the old proverb: if you have plans, your horse is laughing. (Thatā€™s how the saying goes, right?) šŸ˜‚

šŸ©¹Letā€™s talk first aid kits! šŸ©¹

Iā€™m sure youā€™ve got one tucked in your tack room, but whenā€™s the last time you really looked at it? Whatā€™s missing? Whatā€™s covered in dust? šŸ«¢

Itā€™s time for a tack room clean out and a refresh on the essentials. Duct tape, disinfectant scrub, vet wrap, a thermometer, your veterinarianā€™s contact information, etc. are just a few things you may find in an equine first aid kit.

āœ…Being prepared for a hoof abscess or a minor wound will make your usual ā€œare you kidding me?ā€ a little less of a headache, and trust me, your vet will thank you.

As a horse owner, what are some non-prescription items in your kit that saved your butt (or your horseā€™s)? Letā€™s talk about it in the comments below! šŸ—£ļø

Iā€™m sure itā€™s not hard to spot the dental abnormality in this case! šŸ˜±

This gelding had a cracked incisor. Upon examination, the 101 tooth was found to be fractured with exposed pulp.

šŸ’­What is pulp? šŸ’­
Pulp is the sensitive tissue within a tooth that contains blood vessels, nerves and connective tissues. Once pulp is exposed the tooth is compromised and needs to be removed before it causes further damage. Ouch! šŸ¤•

When removing any tooth, itā€™s important to take radiographs to visualize how much damage has occurred at the root of the tooth. In this horseā€™s case, radiographs revealed an abnormal and ā€œbluntedā€ root, narrowing of the pulp chamber, and loosening of the periodontal attachments, indicating that the tooth is dead. šŸ©»

This gelding made a full recovery and is back to doing his job! ā¤ļø

Castration and Herd Harmony šŸ’•

šŸ”ŗStallions have their place in the industry and are loved by many, however, Dr.'s Fugaro, Martin and Weisberg have performed their fair share of castrations. We're all aware that it prevents the obvious- unwanted breeding, but it also affects the horse's behavior and personality.

šŸ”»Castrating your stallion will reduce aggressive behavior such as biting, striking out, excessive vocalization, etc. This minimizes stress on barn staff, management and other horses on the property. Additionally, having no testicles eliminates your horse's risk for testicular injury and disease.

Do you prefer geldings, stallions or mares? šŸ“Comment below!

šŸ©ŗLetā€™s talk about Equipment! šŸ©ŗ

One of the many pieces of equipment we keep on the trucks is an ultrasound machine, which some of you may (unfortunately) be familiar with.

An ultrasound works by using sound waves. These waves are emitted by the ultrasound probe and bounce off the structure which allow the machine to create an image!

An ultrasound allows the doctors to evaluate:
-tendons & ligaments
-abdominal organs
-cardiac organs
-reproductive organs
-any miscellaneous structures such as masses, abscesses, etc.
