Illness Treatment

Pain Management
A good farrier-veterinarian relationship will provide the best combination of pain management and mechanical support to the horse, therefore achieving the most comfortable solution for the patient.
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
The use of amniotic tissue products has gain acceptance in the past decade as possible adjunctive treatment for a myriad of equine conditions. Amniotic membrane and amniotic fluid products have been utilized in horses with skin disorders such as burns, ulcers, and wounds. They have also been used for a variety of ophthalmologic conditions such as corneal surface lesions.
Upper Respiratory Illness Treatment
Respiratory disease (i.e. pneumonia, “roarers,” conditions of the pharynx/larynx that impairs the performance in race horses, heaves/recurrent airway obstruction, bronchitis, etc.).

Infection Treatment

Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment
In the past few decades, ozone therapy has shown encouraging results in treating a wide spectrum diseases and equine disorders encompassing bacterial and viral infections. It produces obvious benefits in equine-related anaemia, chlamydial abortions, lymphomas, and ehrlichiosis. It is now an established treatment choice for many equine infectious diseases in some parts of the world. Antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase can be boosted by ozone therapy (Flores-Colin & Gayon-Amaro, 2019).

Chronic Condition Treatment

Arthritis Treatment
We all know that osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that significantly affects the performance of our horses, as it does in human athletes.
Hip Dysplasia Treatment
There are genetic reasons for the development of this condition of the digit joints (clubfeet) (photo8). Other factors involved are diet and exercise. Clubfoot also can be associated to pain in other region of the limb therefore is very important a complete lameness exam in order to discard a lesion elsewhere in the limb. Clinical signs of a clubfoot are a prominent bulge at the coronary band, increase in length of the heel relative to the toe, and failure of the heel to touch the ground after trimming. As the hoof growths it develops a boxy shape and a dish shape at the level of the toe.

Veterinary Euthanasia

Laboratory Services
To our advantage as horse owners and veterinarians, the body condition changes usually precede the radiographic signs of laminitis. This is why it is very important to accurately diagnose the disease and once diagnosed make sure there are no signs of laminitis. There are multiple tests that your veterinarian can perform in order to diagnose insulin resistance, at the time of writing this article my favourite is oral sugar test. It is important to realize that these tests can sometimes come back negative. Therefore, if the horse continues to show signs but blood work does not correlate with the clinical signs, talk to your veterinarian about other non-traditional testing methods for example TRH (Thyrotropin releasing hormone) stimulation test. Once diagnosed, your veterinarian will guide you with proper diet, hoof care and possibly medications. It is important to have good communication with your veterinarian in order to advise you properly and make sure your horse receives the best possible care.
