This is a a great opportunity for our Tennessee equine businesses. The window for the TAEP application is very short so start looking into the process now.

NASHVILLE – Equine businesses across Tennessee can now apply for support through the Tennessee Department of Agriculture’s premier cost-share initiative, the Tennessee Agricultural Enhancement Program (TAEP). The application period for TAEP is October 1–7, 2025.

For the first time, horses, donkeys, and mules may qualify under the Hay Storage, Livestock Equipment, and Livestock Solutions programs. To be eligible, applicants must operate a commercial equine business involved in breeding, training, and/or boarding, with a minimum of 20 head. Horses, donkeys, and mules may be combined to meet this requirement.

“All Tennessee producers contribute to the strength of our state’s agricultural economy,” Commissioner Charlie Hatcher, D.V.M., said. “By extending TAEP eligibility to equine businesses, we are recognizing their vital role in our communities and making sure they have the resources to grow and remain competitive.”

Our clinic has our first confirmed case of West Nile of the season. The horse resides in Grayson County, was not vaccinated and unfortunately did not survive. Please review your vaccination records and make sure your horse is up to date and protected. Every year we see a few confirmed cases in both our Tn and Ky clients but they are almost always unvaccinated horses.

As mentioned in our post earlier this week about EEE, summer and fall are the peak time for arbovirus infection as these diseases (which include Eastern Equine Encephalitis [EEE], West Nile Virus [WNV], Western Equine Encephalitis [WEE] and Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis [VEE]) are transmitted by several different species of mosquitoes and biting insects.

Let this graphic serve as a source of more information about West Nile Virus (WNV) as well as a reminder to keep your equines up to date on vaccinations with the guidance of your veterinarian to best protect your animals from infection.

Learn more about West Nile Virus and find downloadable resources on the Equine Disease Communication Center's website at: https://www.equinediseasecc.org/west-nile-virus

What a Week!
We had a full (and fulfilling!) week last week with back-to-back events that brought together clients, veterinarians, and farriers for some incredible learning opportunities.

We kicked things off with our Client Education Meeting, followed by an outstanding Vet/Farrier Collaborative Event featuring Dr. Craig Lesser, a podiatry veterinarian from Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital, and Dr. Casey Cromer of Boehringer Ingelheim.

Dr. Lesser gave live demonstrations on the shoeing of both a laminitis case and a navicular horse, while Dr. Cromer led hands-on venogram instruction. The combination of practical application and expert insight made for an unforgettable experience.

Both Dr. Lesser and Dr. Cromer are not only highly skilled veterinarians, but also exceptional educators—and it showed. Farriers and veterinarians alike appreciated the opportunity to work side-by-side and dive deep into these complex cases.

Thank you to everyone who joined us—we’re already looking forward to the next one!
