23.01.2022 Do you want to know more about Western Dressage?
23.01.2022 Hi all! Wondering if anyone is keen for a saddle fitter? A friend is wanting to get a fellow called Rob up to Swan Hill, but we need 8 or 10 horses to make it worth his while. I thought I'd spread the word and see if we can make it happen! From Teagan: "It's roughly $220 per horse, but again depends on what needs doing etc. I would have him come to the one spot to save him wasting hours traveling around considering he is travelling 5 hours to us if we can get the numbers. He is very popular, but said he will be able to give us dates to chose from when we know if we have enough interest". Let me know if you're interested and I'll pass you onto Teagan x

16.01.2022 Fascinating Facts About Equine Eyes Behind those soft, intelligent eyes gazing at you across the pasture are complex and unique ocular structures. Horses’ eyes ...are designed to give them every possible advantage in staying safe from predators, here are some of the coolest facts about them. Horses’ pupils: are oblique in shape and positioned horizontally within the eye, which optimizes the animals’ ability to scan horizons. Eye position: The eyes are positioned on each side of the skull allowing for a large, nearly 360 field of vision Approximately 146 of monocular vision on either side and about 65 to 80 of binocular vision ahead of them; the horse’s two blind spots are directly behind the tail and directly in front of their head. Equine retinas: appear to be designed to detect motion (or predators, for example) in low-lighting conditions. Corpora nigra: a structure within the eye, it appears to serve as a natural visor in bright light; the structure also probably helps improve the horse’s limited depth perception. Eyesite: Visual acuity in horses has been variably estimated to lie between 20/30 and 20/60 scientists believe horses see objects better if they are up to 70 centimeters (roughly 2.3 feet) off the ground. Color Vision: horses have dichromatic vision with reduced cone density, meaning they see washed-out versions of colors including green, yellow, blue, and gray. It does not appear that horses can distinguish reds from other hues. Large globes and pupillary structure allow the horse’s eyes to capture the maximum amount of light possible in lowlighting conditions. Floaters in the eye’s vitreous (the fluid filling behind the lens) are a common finding in horses. There are reports in the literature associating vitreal floaters with headshaking; however, the vast majority of horses with floaters show no behavioral abnormalities. Visual Assessment: cannot be objectively determined in a horse that is not overtly blind. Call Fox Run Equine Center about equine eye troubletearing, a scratch, swelling and follow up with twice-yearly checkups because such incidents can set the stage for equine recurrent uveitis (ERU). Many veterinarians cite the Appaloosa as being about eight times more likely to develop ERU than other breeds. Some horses develop vitiligo (depigmentation of previously pigmented sections of skin) around their eyes and on their eyelids. This is most common in Arabian Horses. Color changes within the cornea: White might indicate an abscess; blue discoloration is consistent with edema (fluid swelling) expected with an ulcer; red indicates blood vessel entry for healing; while a dark color is of concern for imminent rupture. A pigmented iris (such as in a blue-eyed horse) becomes dark with inflammation from uveitis, melanoma, or hemorrhage. Pupil size provides specific informationA large pupil might indicate glaucoma or retinal or optic nerve disease; a small pupil size can be a sign of uveitis. The horse has the highest intraocular pressure (fluid pressure within the eye) of any land mammal.
