Granulosa thecal cell tumours are a tumour of the o***y. They stop mares from cycling properly and can make them show aggressive or stallion like behaviour.

This is one we successfully removed recently, and the mare will be back next year to breed once her remaining o***y starts cycling again

The end of another great breeding season is nearly upon us (phew!)
We will not be accepting any mares to start a new cycle from the end of February, so please get organised ASAP if you still want to breed this year 🐴

Stomach ulcers affect over 60% of performance horses, and over 90% of racehorses - do you know what your horse’s stomach looks like?
There is only one way to know for sure. We have scoped a lot of ‘normal’ looking horses that end up being full of ulcers

Our next scoping day will be held on the 30th of January at our clinic. Randlab

Mares are one of the few species that are not able to have twins
Conceiving twins is relatively common, and is detected at the early (14-16 day) scan. This video shows us manually reducing a twin, to allow the other embryo to go ahead and develop normally

Ruptured peroneus tertius
Ruptured peroneus tertius

Ruptured peroneus tertius (part of the stay apparatus that allows horses to lock their hind legs to sleep standing up) is an interesting but relatively uncommon injury. We have seen a few in recent months, they are characterised by a very unique gait and the ability to straighten the hock while bending the stifle (see photo in comments)
