Trotting across the green expanse of the Dublin Horse Show Grand Prix field this August, Laura Kraut and Bisquetta—head up, ears pricked—seemed to know there was something on the wind.  Alan Wade’s towering Rolex Grand Prix of Dublin course had so-far decimated the starting list, with no shor...

🌿 𝗧𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 #2: 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗼 🌿
Keeping your pastures — and your horses — safe from the plants we most often see causing trouble in North Florida.

Creeping indigo thrives almost all year in Florida’s sandy soils, but it’s often easiest to spot when grass thins out — along driveways, fencelines, or parking areas where it’s carried in on tires or equipment. 🚗

🐴 Horses can actually develop a taste for it and seek it out — but don’t panic, toxicity usually comes from repeated ingestion over time, not a single bite.

⚠️ Signs of chronic exposure can include:
• Weight loss
• Depression or dullness
• Eye discharge
• Neurologic changes

✅ Control tips:
Pulling it up often leaves roots behind. For long-term control, treat with GrazonNext® or another pasture-safe herbicide labeled for creeping indigo.
Recheck the area after treatment before turning horses back out.

If you’re unsure whether that plant creeping along your fenceline is the real thing, snap a photo and send it our way — we’re happy to help.

🌿 This is the second post in our 𝗧𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 — helping you spot the hidden pasture hazards we see most often in North Florida.

Corticosteroid injections are one of the most reliable ways to manage joint inflammation and keep performance horses feeling their best. Different options are used depending on the joint, how it moves, and the demands of the horse’s workload.

Common corticosteroids:
*Methylprednisolone acetate – effective in joints that don’t have a lot of motion and provides longer relief
*Triamcinolone acetonide – often selected for high-motion joints where smooth movement matters
*Betamethasone – a balanced option that provides both quick and steady relief

Each steroid has its own strengths, and the right choice depends on the individual horse, the specific joint, and long-term soundness goals. What matters is not just reducing soreness but helping joints stay comfortable under the stress of training and competition.
