Veterinary

Have you ever been in a situation where you were not able to distinguish a simple cough from a real disease which could have dramatic outcomes for a horse and potentially contaminate the whole herd? When suspicion arises, the initial diagnostic relies on a precise examination by a veterinarian and an early pathogen identification through diagnosis. Good hygiene protocols for both the individual and the collective, and adapted treatment are needed as well. These two pillars play a critical role in safeguarding the health and well-being of our equine companions, as well as preventing potential economic losses and maintaining the overall stability of equine communities.

If you already had a sick horse, you know the situation can escalate quickly. At the first signs of a respiratory disease, distinguishing a simple cough from a severe infection which will evolve into respiratory distress, and even the appearance of neurologic symptoms can be a challenge. These seemingly inoffensive symptoms can signify a much more critical issue. If not detected in time and treated correctly, a respiratory disease can be disabling for your horse for its entire life, damaging its health along with its sportive carrier.
