Through membership of XLVets Equine, the practice is able to offer our clients access to XLVets’ database of equine specific factsheets. Below, you will find their complete list of factsheets ordered in alpahabetical order with PDF downloads available for all.
The factsheets are intended for ‘further reading’ and if you are concerned about your horse, we recommend to call us on 01908 560789 or send us an online enquiry.
Horses are not usually aggressive; on the whole herds stay together because they form a hierarchy within the group, allowing them to get on well with each other. When a horse shows aggression, it is generally as a result of a perceived threat from either the environment in which it finds itself or in response to a noxious stimulus from within the animal itself, for example an animal in pain.
