Antibiotics are one of the most important treatments in human and veterinary medicine - but they are losing their effectiveness. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) causes over a million deaths per year in humans. We are also seeing bacterial infections with resistance to multiple drugs in horses. The horse also relies heavily on the normal healthy bacteria to function and thrive and antibiotic treatment depletes these protective organisms, allowing only resistant microbes to multiply without competition. Antibiotics are life saving treatments when used appropriately as needed. When used in situations where the horse would recover without them, they are potentially dangerous to your horse and increase the chance of resistant organisms as well as a waste of money. Please don’t be offended if you are questioned by vets about your horse’s needs and if they choose not to prescribe an antibiotic in a situation where it may have been used in the past. We are trying to ensure the continued health and wellbeing of your horses and the human race

Castration – Thinking about gelding your c**t? ✂️🐴

If it’s time to lighten the load, here are a few important things to consider:

Check for both testicles – Ensure both have descended before booking the procedure.

Pick the right season – Cool, dry weather is ideal. Wet or muddy conditions can increase the risk of post-op infection.

Prep the right paddock – A spacious, safe turnout area encourages movement, which helps minimise swelling and supports recovery.
