Anemia

This is a deficiency of red blood cells within the horses body. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin and

are essential for the transportation of oxygen from the heart to the rest of the body, as well as allowing

the removal of carbon dioxide to occur.

Symptoms of Anemia

•Your horse will have pale gums.

•The horse may be lethargic.

•May have an irregular heart beat.

Test for Anemia

•Anemia can be spotted by looking at the horses gums which are usually a red to pink colour but when

anaemic they will be pale.

•A blood test will show reduced levels of red blood cells.

The capillary refill test this is a good way to see how quickly the colour returns to the gums after your

thumb has been held there for a few seconds, the colour should return almost immediately or certainly

within a few seconds, if it does not then your horse could be anaemic.

Brittle Hooves

Dry Brittle, Cracked, Lined or Dull Hooves.

Hoof condition is normally a reflection of the quality of nutrition that a horse is receiving.

Each horse is an individual and has its own special requirements of minerals, vitamins etc. In addition

some horses digest food better than others and so need a different proportion of minerals and other

nutrients like biotin in the diet. Some horses only produce thin hoof wall and sole and the rate of growth

is slower than normal. This is what causes hoof problems.

years), although it is sometimes diagnosed in horses as young as seven.

neurological symptoms, such as ataxia: weakness, shakiness, wobbliness and “dog sitting”).

Hoof Rot/ Laminitis

Laminitis is an extremely painful condition which affects horses and other hoofed animals. The condition

causes the lamellar tissues of the hoof to slowly die and disintegrate, causing the bones of the leg to

rotate or sink through the hoof. The condition can be so painful that it requires euthanization, as it can

be very difficult to treat. Veterinarians estimate that laminitis may be among the leading causes of death

for horses, despite efforts to understand and combat the condition.

Headshaking - (Seasonal Allergies and Hayfever)

Seasonal allergies, sometimes also called hayfever, tend to result in nasal congestion, itchy or watery

connected to pollen release of plants, which most frequently occurs in spring and summer.
