Travis Henry, DVM
With 12 pounds of teeth in the head of the average 5-year-old horse, dental care is an important part of overall equine health, said veterinarian Travis Henry of Midwest Equine Services in Elkhorn. Routine, professional annual exams and care help prevent problems, improve the well-being of the animal and prolong its useful life."I’m not so concerned with floating the teeth NetAgrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08022618273599895649noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12656837.post-59145536804781031742013-03-03T14:46:00.002-06:002013-03-03T14:46:39.754-06:00The old ounce of prevention

Keeping a horse healthy often depends on keeping track of things.

Dogs and cats can adjust to the loss of a foot. Horses? Not so much.Without sound feet and legs, the horse is history, said Kevin Nelson of Bristol Veterinary Clinic.

A horse sale regarded highly enough to draw registered Morgan consignments from as far west as Wyoming and from as far east as Maryland should bring out the big bidders. But at the end of the annual Hylee’s Production Sale Oct. 27, there was plenty of speculation about the horse market.
