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.
Hoof cracks can occur in all breeds of horses and ponies and can be a significant cause of foot problems and lameness. Once formed, the cracks can take many months to grow out and in severe cases can cause recurrent problems. Recognising when your horse has a crack and getting suitable, prompt treatment, can help to significantly reduce the time and interventions needed to enable a crack to heal.
