*** BEWARE LAMINITIS ***

I have seen two new cases of laminitis today. Both horses were being managed on what seemed to be poor grazing, and one of the two was also already on well soaked hay.

The weather at the moment is depressing for summer, but perfect for grass growth, so please make sure you keep a close eye on any horses/ponies who may be prone to laminitis. It’s a really good idea to get used to feeling for pulses to the feet. I did do a Youtube video on how to find your horse’s digital pulses, a couple of years ago.

Radiograph not from today…..

❗️Warning to horse owners❗️

This is the prime time of year for horses to be affected by atypical myopathy and we’re urging all owners to be vigilant for sycamore seeds, leaves, or seedlings in their pastures.

So, what is atypical myopathy? Atypical myopathy is a severe and often fatal muscle disorder caused by eating sycamore seeds, leaves, or seedlings. It is fatal in approximately 75% of cases and prompt diagnosis and treatment is essential if horses are to have any chance of survival. So if you think your horse might have atypical myopathy, please call your vet right away.

Symptoms include:
👉 Muscle weakness, soreness, or stiffness; horses may struggle to walk, stand or breathe
👉 Dull/depressed with low hanging head
👉 Lethargy/fatigue
👉 Muscle trembling
👉 Colic-like symptoms (e.g., shivering, sweating)
👉 Brown or dark red urine

Prevention is definitely better than cure, so it is essential you are able to identify the plant and its parts. Avoid letting horses graze in fields with/near sycamore trees or if this isn’t possible, fence off areas closest to the trees. Check your pastures regularly and thoroughly for seeds, leaves, and seedlings and if any are spotted remove them immediately.

Wondering re the application and potential of this

Good Morning Hoof Cinch Fans!

We had a great testimonial come in the other day that we wanted to share with you. Here it is:

Dear Hoof Cinch

I learned of your product on RFD TV. I am always looking at solutions to lamenesses. Well, when I saw these, I decided to try them on a horse owned by a friend of mine. Easy to install, and I watched him for weeks. Then sometime around 8 weeks, this horse went from barely being able to walk, to entering a gymkhana with a little kid aboard. When my vet saw them he was quite interested. I am buying my second set and am telling all my friends about this product. They worked for me. Thank you from me and also from "Dusty'
-- Kerry

If you know someone who's horse or pony are suffereing from or acute please let them know about the Hoof Cinch

Have a great day!!

Thankyou for posting, a salutary reminder for us all.

Not always possible to be sure of how much sleep your horse gets but quality rest is certainly important for their wellbeing

All horses need deep sleep overnight that requires lying down completely. Stall size, bedding, and stress can cause horses to get insufficient rest.
