Great information reposted from on Cushing's Disease vs Equine Metabolic Syndrome. We get these questions a lot so we thought we would share! 🐴

"With each passing year, horses are living longer lives and many survive easily to 25 years of age or older. While this is good news, it also means that we need to be aware of changes that can occur with age in order to preserve the health and quality of life of our equine friends.

For example, Equine Cushing’s disease is one of the most common diseases of horses 15 years of age or older. This syndrome is better defined as Equine Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction (PPID) because it reflects the location within the brain that is abnormal. Clinical signs are associated with abnormally elevated hormone concentrations in the blood.

Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS) is another endocrine disorder that can affect mature horses and shares some of the same clinical signs as PPID. Although the two disorders feature some striking clinical similarities — most notably a predisposition to development of chronic laminitis — the underlying disease biology is quite different in each case. Successful management relies on proper diagnosis by your equine veterinarian first.

Our understanding of both conditions, especially EMS, is incomplete and evolving, but sufficient information is currently available to highlight some important similarities and differences for the interested horse owner. Consult your veterinarian for more information and work with them to develop the best wellness practices to ensure a healthy life for your mature horse."

Hello Bug Season!

Is your horse all the sudden itchy, losing hair, or covered in little bumps? We have seen a surge in insect bite hypersensitivity this month as summer (and the bugs!) are in full swing. If you have noticed an upswing in bugs on your property, here are some ways to protect your horse:

1. Protective gear: fly sheets, fly masks, and fly boots help protect your horse from bites if they don’t lose them in the field! Lightweight options are best in the heat and these items must be cleaned regularly or they may develop other skin conditions.

2. Topical fly repellant: there are limitless manufactured and natural products available in various sprays, ointments, and misters. Fly repellant does not last long however and must be re-applied frequently. In addition, please do not get fly repellant in your horses eyes, ears, or mouth or on any wounds.

3. Fans: Having a fan available can help keep your horse cool AND deters flies. Not all fans are safe for use in a barn. Please ensure proper fire safety with any electrical equipment and do not leave fans on while unattended.

4. Medications: If prevention fails, give us a call! There are multiple prescription medications available to help treat insect bite hypersensitivity. An examination helps us determine the nature and severity of your horse's skin condition so we can recommend a treatment plan that will best fit their needs!
