24.01.2022 FEI Bans Horse Whisker Trimming from 2021 At the 2020 General Assembly held this week, a new rule that prohibits the clipping/shaving of sensory hairs was passe...d as part of the veterinary regulations. The Veterinary Committee believes that the horse’s sensory hairs must not be trimmed or removed as it reduces the horse’s sensory ability. Voted through unanimously, the rule states that horses are not permitted to compete in FEI events if the horse’s sensory hairs have been clipped and/or shaven or in any other way removed unless individual sensory hairs have been removed by a veterinarian to prevent pain or discomfort for the horse. The change will align with legislation in a number of National Federations, where trimming or removal of sensory hairs is already forbidden and in some cases carries a heavy sanction. France, Germany and Switzerland are among the nations where whisker and or ear hair removal is banned to some degree, in some cases it is written into animal welfare law and in others, the removal of specified vibrissae is not permitted for horses competing under sporting federation rules. The rule comes into effect from 1 July 2021...read online: https://www.equestrian.org.au//fei-bans-horse-whisker-trim #ridewithus #fortheloveofthehorse #natural #notrimming #whiskers

22.01.2022 January clinic dates have been posted to the clinic group .. POLEWORK & GROUNDWORK SOLD OUT

21.01.2022 Today's the day! Equestrian In The Park is starting soon, tickets will be available at the gate so come and enjoy this great event.

21.01.2022 What is the longest a horse can safely go without food? More and more I see horses and ponies stood for long periods of time with no hay or haylage. Usually un...der the guise of a weight control diet. So how long can a horse be without food before damage is done? And what damage is done? For those with a short attention span, I’ll give you the answer to begin with - 4 hours, maximum. Why? Horses are grazers. They are designed to eat constantly. They have no way of storing their acids and digestive enzymes, they’ve never needed to. They have no gall bladder to store bile and their stomachs release acid constantly, whether or not there is food in the stomach and intestines. A horses stomach only holds approximately 8-15 litres. Depending on the substance eaten, it takes on average 4-6 hours for the stomach to completely empty. After this, the acids and enzymes start to digest the inside of the horses stomach and then the intestines. This causes both gastric and intestinal ulceration. It has been estimated that 25-50% of foals and 60-90% of adult horses suffer from ulceration. But I won’t go into detail about this, there is a lot of information around about ulcers. So is that it? Are ulcers the only concern? No, having an empty stomach is a stress situation for a horse. The longer they are starved, the more they release stress hormones, cortisol predominantly. Cortisol blocks insulin and causes a constantly high blood glucose level. This stimulates the body to release even more insulin, and in turn this causes fat tissue to be deposited and leptin resistance. Over time this causes insulin resistance (Equine Metabolic Syndrome). All of these mechanisms are well known risk factors for laminitis and are caused by short term starvation (starting roughly 3-4 hours after the stomach empties). Starving a laminitic is literally the worst thing you can do. Over longer periods, this also starts to affect muscle and can cause weakness, and a lack of stamina so performance horses also need a constant supply of hay/haylage to function optimally. Let’s not forget horses are living, breathing and feeling animals. We talk about this stress reaction like it’s just internal but the horse is well aware of this stress. Door kicking, box walking, barging and many other stable vices and poor behaviour can be explained by a very stressed horse due to food deprivation (we all have that Hangry friend to explain this reaction). Next time you shout or hit a horse that dives for their net, remember their body is genuinely telling them they are going to starve to death. They know no different. But surely they spend the night asleep so they wouldn’t eat anyway? Not true. Horses only need 20mins REM sleep every 24 hours (jealous? I am!). They may spend a further hour or so dozing but up to 22-23 hours a day are spent eating. So if you leave your horse a net at 5pm and it’s gone by 8pm, then by 12am their stomach is empty. By 4am they are entering starvation mode. By their next feed at 8am, they are extremely stressed, physically and mentally. Now I know the cob owners are reading this mortified. I can almost hear you shouting at your screen if I feed my horse ad lib hay he won’t fit out the stable door in a week!! I will say that a horse with a constant supply of hay/haylage will eat far less then the same horse that is intermittently starved. They don’t eat in a frenzy, reducing the chance of colic from both ulcers and over eating. Cobs included. However I’m not suggesting you sit your cob in front of a bale of haylage and say have at it! There is a difference between ad lib and a constant supply. There is much we can do to reduce calorie intake and control weight whilst feeding a constant supply. The easiest is small holes nets. There are many. Trickle nets, greedy feeders, nibbleze, trawler nets etc. My personal favourite is the Shires Soft Mesh 1. They don’t cost the Earth, they are easy to fill and they don’t have knots so are much gentler to the teeth. Now often I suggest these types of nets to owners and the owner tells me Oh no, *** won’t eat out of those this is nonsense. If he was left it, he would. Remember, you can give a normal net and one of these for them to nibble at after. Better than leaving them with nothing at all. A few other tricks, hang the net from the ceiling/rafters, it’s harder to eat out of a net that swings. Soak the hay, a minimum of 4 hours to be effective. Mix with straw but be sure to introduce the straw slowly and make sure it’s top quality and a palatable type eg Barley or Oat, otherwise they won’t eat it. Don’t forget exercise. The best way to get weight off a horse is exercise. Enough exercise and they can eat what they want! And lay off the bucket feed and treats! Horses on a diet require a vit/min supplement in the form of a balancer but that’s it. The odd slice of carrot or suede won’t do any harm but no licks, treats, treacle, molasses, cereal based rubbish. Even if it says low sugar or the marvellously misleading No added sugar! Your horse would rather have a constant supply of hay, I promise. Written by Vikki Fowler BVetMed BAEDT MRCVS A few edits for the critics- Firstly, feeding a constant supply does not mean ad lib feeding. It means use some ingenuity and spread the recommended amount of daily forage so the horse is never stood with out food for more than 4 hours. I am not promoting obesity, quite the opposite, feeding like this reduces obesity and IR. This can be done whilst feeding your horse twice a day as most horse owners do. Just think outside the box for your own situation. Secondly I am in the UK and this post is UK specific, use some common sense when reading. Yes in warmer climates, soaking hay for 4 hours is dangerous and studies show 1 hour is plenty in hot weather but in the UK’s arctic climate, a minimum of 4 hours is required. Equally the UK feed exclusively grass hay. I can not comment on other types. Thirdly, yes every horse/pony and situation is different, but this is a law of nature and all horses have this anatomy and metabolism. How you achieve this constant supply is individual, the need for it is not. Fourthly, the use of hay nets in the UK is very very high. I’d estimate 95% of horses I see are fed this way and very very few have incisor wear or neck/back issues as a result. Yes, feeding from the ground is ideal, but a constant supply, I feel trumps this. Again with ingenuity both can be safely achieved. Finally, straw can be fed to horses safely, introduced very slowly, with fresh water always available, plus a palatable and digestible type of straw which will depend on your area. Again many horses in the UK are bedded on straw and most of them eat it. This is not a new concept to us.

20.01.2022 Caballo de Akhal-Teke Equus ferus caballus Como siempre sigo con mis relatos históricos y ellos tienen una parte importante en ella.... Originarios de Asia Menor y todo un símbolo en Turkmenistán los Akhal-Teke tienen más de 3.000 años de historia y están considerados por su belleza como caballos divinos, principalmente aquellos animales palominos que debido a las proteínas de su pelaje emiten iridiscencias doradas que los hacen parecer caballos de oro. El Akhal-Teke es descendiente de los desaparecidos caballos turcomanos y con más de 3.000 años de historia se puede considerar una de las razas equinas más antiguas. Su denominación proviene de Akhal, nombre que se da a los oasis de la zona de Kopet Dag y Kuren Dag, y Teke, nombre de una tribu turcomana que poseía los mejores ejemplares. Se le conoce popularmente como el caballo bañado en oro por el pelaje dorado iridiscente que muestran algunas de sus variedades, un efecto que está producido por la especial disposición que muestran las proteínas de su pelaje y que hace que la luz solar se refleje sobre el animal dando la sensación de que estuviera hecho de ese metal precioso. Su origen es aún un misterio aunque se cree que provienen de caballos traídos por los escitas, el primer pueblo en dominar el arte de la equitación. Se han encontrado esqueletos de animales con características similares a los actuales Akhal-Teke en el macizo de Altai y en yacimientos situados en la actual Turkmenistán, país donde estos caballos son un auténtico símbolo nacional y donde están censados una buena parte de los aproximadamente ocho mil ejemplares de Akhal-Teke que hay en el mundo. En los antiguos escritos griegos y romanos los Akhal-Teke tenían la consideración de caballos divinos o celestiales, propios de reyes y con una belleza inigualable, siendo por ello muy apreciados por todas las civilizaciones que habitaron o conquistaron Asia Central. Incluso en algunos textos históricos se cita que Bucéfalo, el caballo negro de Alejandro Magno, tenía sangre de los primeros Akhal-Teke, ya que los caballos de Tesalia poseían por aquel entonces sangre de los caballos orientales criados en Persia. El Akhal-Teke es un caballo de estatura media, en torno a 1,45 metros de alzada las hembras y hasta 1,60 metros los machos. Su aspecto general es el de un caballo estilizado con cabeza fina y descarnada, orejas largas y estrechas en una posición alta y ojos grandes y vivaces. Su cuello largo y delgado, en ocasiones con forma de S, le otorga un porte altivo, con un cuerpo alargado, pecho profundo y ovalado y musculatura poco voluminosa pero densa. Destacan también unas extremidades delgadas y fuertes, características que le otorgan gran fuerza y resistencia. La cola y la crin son poco pobladas, a veces escasas, y el flequillo es casi ausente. Las capas aceptadas en el Akhal-Teke son muy diversas, pudiendo presentar cualquier capa sólida pero nunca pintos o appaloosas. Los individuos de capas oscuras no presentan la iridiscencia, aunque si un gran brillo. Los pelajes más habituales son el buckskin dorado, alazán y castaño cobrizo. Las capas más deseadas son albinos y cremellos, con reflejos plateados y nacarados y en especial los palominos, que crean el efecto de estar bañados en oro. En cuanto a su carácter se trata de una raza fuerte y que muestra gran valentía, resistencia, lealtad y sensibilidad. Los turcomanos lograron aprender a manejarlos a la perfección, apaciguando su carácter nervioso para obtener de ellos todo su potencial. Su secreto era una doma suave y respetuosa con el animal, evitando siempre cualquier tipo de castigo. De esta forma conseguían crear un vínculo muy estrecho entre caballo y jinete, asegurándose con ello respeto y obediencia, aunque desmontados los Akhal-Teke tienen fama de ser caballos difíciles de manejar. A lo largo de la historia se han criado tanto para el deporte como para servir de monturas militares, aunque es en el primer caso donde los Akhal-Teke siempre han destacado. Tanto es así que en Rusia se celebraban carreras de resistencia de 500 kilómetros donde estos animales quedaban siempre en los primeros puestos gracias a tener una gran resistencia y poco desgaste físico. En 1935 un grupo de Akhal-Teke con sus jinetes hicieron en 84 días el recorrido entre Ashjabat (capital de Turkmenistán) y Moscú. Fueron 4.150 kilómetros cruzando el desierto de Kara Kum donde los caballos apenas descansaron y bebieron. En la actualidad los Akhal-Teke se utilizan principalmente para actividades de doma y salto, habiéndose descubierto el gran potencial de la raza en estas disciplinas. Prueba de ello son ejemplares como Abzent, que en 1968 fue nominado como el mejor caballo de deporte del mundo, Dancing Brave o Melekush. A pesar de su gran disposición para el deporte sigue siendo una raza muy poco habitual y escasa, aunque poco a poco su cría va extendiéndose a países de todo el mundo. En España los Akhal-Teke se crían desde 2007. El precio de un caballo de esta raza puede alcanzar fácilmente los 100.000 dólares y algunos ejemplares han alcanzado la cifra de dos millones.

07.01.2022 Hands up who can identify with that look .... The dread a look can inflict. How do we manage our ‘moody’ mares? I have a mare - but she is not really moody, alt...hough she can go from happy to bite your face off, in a nano second - so, mmmm maybe she can be moody?!? The amount of ‘moody mare’ products out there is a testament of the prevalence of issues managing these she-dragons. I would love to hear how you have managed your moody mare - what worked / did not work for you? Not all solutions come in the form of an injection, there are other ways to manage these mares, sometimes it may not even be hormones ! Keep tuned, as I will be giving a presentation on the herbal management of mares in January - in the Swan Valley, date TBC.
