Be a Better owner event 5…Lameness

Be a Better Horse Owner Event 5
Can you spot a lame horse?
Tuesday 14th July from 7pm
At Dodderhill Equestrian
£10 per ticket
Our next horse owner evening will be all about learning how to recognise lameness and understand what your horse may be trying to tell you.
We’ll be looking at questions such as:
How do you spot a lame horse?
Who should you contact to help your horse?
How can you start to tell whether the problem may be coming from the foot, lower limb, upper limb or elsewhere in the body?
What signs might you notice before it becomes more obvious?
On the night we’ll have live horses available, with a qualified equestrian carrying out walk-ups, trot-ups, work-ups and potentially some lunging, so everyone can have a go at assessing movement and spotting whether a horse may be lame or not.
We’ll also have a vet from MBG Vets and a physio joining us to chat through what to look for, who to call and how different professionals can work together to help the horse.
A really practical and informative evening for any horse owner who wants to feel more confident spotting when something isn’t quite right.
