The Importance of Worming Programs for Your Horse’s Health

Understanding Equine Worming

As passionate horse owners, it’s crucial for us to prioritize the health of our equine companions, whether they are happy hackers or competition horses. One essential aspect of horse care is implementing an effective worming program. For years, many have relied on a generic worming routine, often treating their horses without understanding their specific needs.

The Shift Towards Diagnostic Testing

In recent years, however, there has been a significant shift in how we approach equine worm control. Testing for worms has become the best practice recommended by veterinarians and worming distributors alike. Instead of adhering to a pre-determined schedule of wormers, we now have the option to utilize equine worm and egg count kits. These kits, which have been available for over 15 years, enable owners to accurately determine the need for treatment, ensuring we only administer wormers when necessary.

Creating a Tailored Worming Program

At Lab Equine, we understand that each horse is unique, and so should be its worming program. Our goal is to help customers sort out their worming problems and create tailored programs that ensure 100% satisfaction. By using a combination of diagnostic testing and personalized treatment plans, we empower horse owners to maintain optimal health for their ponies, leading to happier and healthier lives for these amazing animals.
