Fall is the scariest time of year! Keep a close eye on your equine friends at risk!

Equine endocrine disorders such as Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS) and Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction (PPID) feature some striking clinical similarities, most notably a predisposition to the development of chronic laminitis. However, the underlying disease biology is quite different in each case.

The graphic below describes some key differences to be aware of between the two diseases.

If you have questions or concerns about your horse in regard to EMS or PPID, contact your veterinarian so that they may further evaluate them.

Thank you to the Horse Owner Education Committee for providing this information.

Colic is not a disease, but rather a combination of signs that alert us to abdominal pain in the horse. Colic can range from mild to severe, but it should never be ignored, as many of the conditions that cause colic can become life threatening in a relatively short period of time. Only by quickly and accurately recognizing colic – and seeking qualified veterinary help – can the chance for recovery be maximized.

Virtually any horse is susceptible to colic, so management practices can play a key role in prevention. And although not every case is avoidable, the guidelines listed in the graphic can help you maximize your horse’s health and reduce the risk of colic.

As always, remember that every animal is different depending on age, breed and other health conditions, so be sure to work with your veterinarian to address any concerns specific to your situation!

Exciting news!! The new POWER FLOAT is being ordered Monday! That means I’ll be offering equine dentals as soon as it arrives! Dentals are important for every horse because horses have teeth that are continuously erupting. This can cause malalignment and sharp points that can be painful. Routine dental care for your horse can make a bit sit more comfortably in their mouth, which leads to a more enjoyable riding experience. Dentals can also help your horse chew their food better, enabling them to to keep weight on and preventing conditions like choke. Call for an appointment to get your horse’s spring needs taken care of! 208-991-0550
