Horse owners be aware: With the onset of winter, the risk of botulism increases, particularly from November to January. Botulism is often associated with contaminated hay and can lead to severe symptoms such as muscle weakness and paralysis. Early diagnosis can be tricky, but it's crucial for successful treatment. If you suspect botulism, seek veterinary care immediately.
At our hospital, we offer treatment with antitoxin, but timing is essential. Don't forget about prevention – ask us about the botulism vaccine, especially if your horses consume round bale hay.

🚨What is Choke in Horses? 🐴
Choke is a common yet serious condition in horses caused by food or foreign objects becoming lodged in their esophagus. While it’s not the same as choking in humans (since horses can still breathe), it requires immediate attention to prevent complications.
🔍 Signs of choke:
Difficulty swallowing
Coughing or gagging
Excessive drooling
Nasal discharge with feed or saliva
🚑 What to do:
Remove access to food and water.
Keep your horse calm and call your vet right away.
Avoid trying to clear the blockage yourself—it can cause more harm.
Early intervention is key! If you suspect choke, don’t wait. Contact us immediately for expert care.
