Dentistry
Complete knowledge of dental anatomy and why routine dental care is needed is imperative to the overall health of your horse. In this lecture we will review the structure and function of the teeth and how our modern management of horses has lead to dental disease and imbalance. We will also cover what is involved in a routine dental floatation procedure. $25
This lecture is also available as part of the GI Package.
Poisonous Plants
While horses are mainly safe to graze pastures unattended, there are some plants (grasses, flowers, shrubs and trees) that contain toxic elements that can cause severe disease and even death. Learn about these plants, how to identify them and what signs to look for if your horse has been exposed. $25
Parasites and Deworming
Parasites are becoming resistant to dewormers, making overwhelming worm burdens and fatal colics not only a thing of the past but a real problem of the future! This couse introduces you to a new way to control parasites, strategic deworming. Prevent disease, lower pasture contamination and stop parasite resistance to dewormers. If we do not change the way we deworm today we will face devastating and fatal consequences in the future. $25
Equine Metabolic Syndrome
