Prepping Your Horse For Summer
Prepping Your Horse For Summer
Check Your Horse's Hooves
Your horse's hooves take a lot of wear and tear, so it's important to have them checked by a professional regularly. At Carter Veterinary Services, our team can check for any issues and trim or shoe your horse's hooves as needed. Ensuring that your horse's hooves are ready for the summer ahead is a smart way to ensure they're getting the care they need.
Update Your Horse's Vaccinations
Vaccinations help protect horses from potentially deadly diseases, so it's important to make sure they're up to date. If your horse is due for any vaccinations, we recommend scheduling an appointment. After all, protecting your horse's health is one of the best things you can do to start the summer off on the right foot.
Schedule a Dental Exam
Just like humans, horses need regular dental care. We recommend having your horse's teeth checked and cleaned at least once a year. Our team can identify any problems and provide treatment as needed, and summer is a great time to make sure your horse's annual dental exam can be checked off the list.
Make An Appointment
At the end of the day, there's nothing quite like spending a lot of time with your horses in the summer. When the days are longer, that means more opportunities to get out and explore. Make sure you're ready for anything by scheduling an appointment. We offer a number of services including in-house blood work, insurance examinations, and more — and our mission is to take the greatest possible care of your horse so you can enjoy the summer ahead.
