Fantastic info graphic if you are wondering if it’s too hot to work your horse!! During this hot weather, please make sure your horse has access to plenty of water, shade, and hopefully a fan or two 🥵

Today marks the official first day of 𝙨𝙪𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙧! 🌴☀️
The temperatures will only get higher from here on out. Here is how you can manage riding in the upcoming hot weather with cooling tips, temperatures you should not be riding in, and when the best times to ride are!

🌡 Avoid riding completely when the combined temperature and relative humidity exceeds 150.
🌤 Make sure you are not overworking your horse beyond its athletic level during hot and humid weather.
💦 Monitor for normal sweating when exercising your horse, if your horse stops sweating contact your veterinarian.

⚠️☀ If signs of heatstroke or heat stress occur such as re**al temperature above 106, incoordination, collapse, distress, dehydration, rapid heart rate and respiratory rate does not decline within 20 minutes after exercise -- call your veterinarian immediately. Stop exercise, offer water and/or electrolytes, get the horse out of the sun, and use cold water on the horse's body.

When handling feet, giving dewormer or using a syringe to give any oral meds, putting in eye drops, trimming ears…. Learn to float with them.

Let’s say you pick up a horse’s foot and they jerk it up and hold it stiffly…. They are not thrashing but not exactly allowing you to hold their foot. Don’t HOLD- that’s not gonna go well for you! But don’t release, because that reinforces the unwanted behavior. If you safely can, keep your hand on their leg and allow it to float with them until they relax some. THEN release. (Or go about your business)

Horse hates getting oral meds by syringe? (You can always practice with something yummy) Just hold it against their face, tip point down towards the corner of thier mouth. If they move around float with them. When they relax, release. (Or give a treat with tube syringe still against their face)

There are so darn many instances where you need to learn to just go with a horse - don’t hold, don’t resist, but don’t release.
It’s definitely an acquired skill set!!!

Picture of Julie grooming Pangea and Pangea loving it, because I don’t currently have a picture in my phone that is more relevant.

We love the Zen Vet's visits to Chesterfield South!

Big news at The Zen Vet! We’ve added the BEMER technology to finish off the end of our therapy sessions 🐴

This non-invasive therapy uses low-frequency electromagnetic pulses to boost circulation, support recovery, and promote overall wellness.

It’s a powerful addition to our rehab and performance care—perfect for horses recovering from injury, training hard, or just in need of a little extra support.

Curious what it’s all about? Stay tuned as we break down how it works and why it matters.
