Equine Preventative Medicine
Equine Wellness Packages including vaccinations and deworming. Our goal is to provide our clients the peace of mind that comes with knowing your horse is receiving the best health-care maintenance on a regular and timely basis.
Your horse's health is the focus of our practice. We strive to keep horses healthy and productive while contributing to the enjoyment and success of our clients.
An effective vaccination program is fundamental to the control of a contagious disease outbreak. When you consider the potential impact of diseases such as strangles, influenza, Equine Herpes Virus, Rotavirus, Salmonella, and Rhodococcus, it is easy to understand the importance of a comprehensive vaccination program.
Working with you, we can design a health management program designed to protect your horse and reduce exposure to infectious disease agents. A comprehensive program lessens the incidence of illness.
A Wellness Program tailored to your horse's activities and environment will help your horse stay in top shape.
Signs your horse may be having a problem
- Not drinking water.
