This horse came to us to be examined due to a very quick onset of severe lameness and swelling, after a suspected blackthorn injury and kick whilst out trail hunting. After x-rays and scans, surgery was advised.

Our vets sampled the joint to find thick pus due to a bad bacterial infection. The pus found within the joint meant that this horse had a very poor prognosis. The joint was flushed twice within in a few days and treated with antibiotics. To everyone’s surprise this horse has gone on to make a good recovery. 😌

‘Bernie’ we hear has been a little fresh to ride recently due to him being in limited work in recent weeks! 🤠 Here he is pictured doing what he loves best with his owner.

This was an excellent result for a horse with such an acute joint infection. Great work from our team! 🙌

Worming our equines can seem like a minefield, and with so many different worming products on the market and with worming resistance more common, our practice is here to help! 🤯🪱

The worms shown in the pictures are from a yearling which our vets were asked to examine. The horse showed signs of tiredness and took to laying down after only a one and a half hour journey in transportation. The owners were quick to react as the horse arrived in poor condition and was depressed, this was due to a heavy worm burden of small and large red worm and suspected roundworms. This then escalated into the horse developing severe diarrhoea. The horse was treated with supportive drugs and care and IV Fluids. Luckily this youngster is now making a good recovery. 👍

There are many factors that have a bearing on when we should deworm a horse and if at all, and what we should worm with.

Factors to consider are….

🪱Which product should i be using?
🪱Do I need to do a worm count?
🪱What age is the horse?
🪱How is the pasture managed?
🪱Has there been horses grazing together from different places?

These are all good reasons to have a good worming strategy in place.

A few interesting myths and facts…………🤔⬇️


🐴 “Worm for tape worm after the first frost”, this was once said, and still even now often comes up in worming discussions, there is absolutely NO truth in this statement.

🐴 Why are red worms not red? They can be red but only if they are filled with blood!

🐴 Horse worms cannot cause disease in humans unlike worms in other animals.


It is worth remembering that every horse even if it is wormed correctly will always carry a small number of worms, and it is up to us to keep our horses safe from disease. Please contact the practice for any advice on worming and our team will be pleased to help. 📞🙌
