The goal of the FHANA Research Grant Program is to support equine veterinarians in the United States of America, Canada, or the European Union who are in academic programs whose missions are directed at discovering diagnostic tools and evidenced-based treatments for diseases that afflict our beloved breed. The targeted diseases of this important initiative are megaesophagus, aortic rupture, chronic progressive lymphedema (CPL) colic, connective tissue disorders, and insect bite-hypersensitivity. Our organization has the potential to make important, groundbreaking discoveries to improve the longevity and quality of life of our Friesians. Through our membership’s collective support and generosity we will make a difference! For more information go to - https://fhana.com/fhana-research-grant-information/

We are happy to announce FHANA will be hosting a webinar in 2025 on the use of Fluralaner (Bravecto) for treating external parasites, ticks, mites, and lice that can result in chronic lymphedema and insect hypersensitivity. Researchers at UC Davis, funded by FHANA’s Research Grant Program, conducted this important investigation. Stay tuned for the date and time of this exciting educational offering.

FHAOK celebrated our year-end clinic with Carl Martin at the beautiful J9 Ranch. The most challenging clinic yet involved the desensitization of our horses. We also celebrated our VP Martha Diaz's 🎂 birthday. Thank you to Janine Regier for hosting such a wonderful event at your beautiful ranch.
