We love our horse’s big, beautiful eyes ❤️❤️ but this is a reminder that things can go wrong with them in a hurry.

Don’t ignore a cloudy, watery, or squinting eye — it could be more serious than it looks.

In truth, we have seen horses who become narcoleptic if they are unable to lay down to sleep! Pretty crazy!!

Swollen limb? It’s always a good idea to call and discuss what is going on with your horse- there are multiple causes, and some may only return to normal with antibiotics! Have a wonderful day!

The term "fat leg" is pretty self-explanatory, but do you know the difference between stocking up and cellulitis?

Many horses will "stock up" with subcutaneous edema (fluid swelling) in two or more legs (usually the hind limbs). Stocking up generally results from a significant decrease in exercise and usually resolves as the horse starts exercising again.

Lymphangitis (or vasculitis, big leg disease, staph infection, or cellulitis), however, is a bacterial infection and a dramatically different condition. While its causes may vary, it’s easy to spot once it sets in. The swelling will be extreme, hot, very painful to the touch, and the horse will be depressed due to the fever and discomfort.

If you think your equine friend has cellulitis or even if you're not sure, we encourage you to seek professional help promptly. Your equine practitioner will make the best treatment recommendations, both to reduce swelling and to address any sort of bacterial infection that might be active or that could occur due to the edema in the soft tissue.

Thank you to all the farriers out there! We all know they say no horse, no hoof. We greatly appreciate all that our farriers help us to achieve! Hope you all had a wonderful week!

It’s ! Let’s take a moment to celebrate and thank our farriers!

Proper foot care is the cornerstone of maintaining a sound horse, and a good farrier is an essential part of your equine's healthcare team, keeping your horse’s feet balanced and well-supported. Farriers and veterinarians often work together for the best interests of the horse, so a skilled farrier is both a necessity and a tremendous asset. Be sure to let your farriers know they are appreciated!
