🚨 IMPORTANT NOTICE – FOOTPATH TEMPORARILY CLOSED DUE TO STRANGLES OUTBREAK 🚨

Following a confirmed positive case of Strangles at our yard, we have taken precautionary measures and put up signs requesting that the footpath through our land is not used until further notice.

We kindly ask ALL members of the public, dog walkers and anyone who would normally use this footpath to please respect the signs and avoid using this route while we try to prevent any further spread.

Strangles is a highly contagious bacterial infection affecting horses. It can spread through direct contact, as well as indirectly via contaminated clothing, footwear, equipment and other surfaces.

We are doing everything we can to protect our horses and prevent this awful infection from spreading to other horses in the area.

⚠️ Please do not ignore the signs or enter the affected area. Even if you are not coming into direct contact with the horses, there is still a risk of carrying the infection between areas.

We appreciate that this may cause some inconvenience, but the health and welfare of the horses must come first.

❤️ We would really appreciate everyone’s understanding, cooperation and respect during this difficult time.

Please help us keep all horses in the local area safe.

Thank you for your support, and please feel free to share this post to help spread awareness. 🐴❤️

🐴❤️ IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION – STRANGLES UPDATE ❤️🐴

Confirmed case at WAEN FARM, BWLCHGWYN – NOT CAE HIC.

I just wanted to clear up some confusion and reassure everyone regarding the recent confirmed Strangles case.

One of the livery horses at Waen Farm developed a lump, which we initially believed was a tooth abscess. He was immediately isolated, and the vet was contacted. Although he showed no other symptoms, we decided to test for Strangles as a precaution, which unfortunately came back positive.

As soon as I received confirmation, I immediately put the yard into lockdown, informed everyone affected and made the situation public to help protect our local equestrian community.

As a riding instructor, I have also temporarily stopped ALL lessons, including freelance teaching at other yards, until the yard has been given the all-clear.

This decision has been made purely to protect everyone’s horses and minimise any risk of spreading infection.

Please be reassured that I am taking every precaution possible, following veterinary advice and doing everything I can to keep all horses safe.

I will continue to keep everyone updated as things progress.

I would really appreciate everyone helping to share the correct information to avoid any unnecessary worry or confusion.

Thank you so much for everyone’s kindness, understanding and support. It genuinely means a lot. ❤️🐴

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE – CONFIRMED STRANGLES CASE ⚠️

Unfortunately, we received a positive test result for Strangles at our yard.

As a result, we have taken the immediate decision to put the yard into full lockdown until further notice.

We wanted to make our local equestrian community aware of the situation as soon as possible, as we feel it is important to be open and honest and do everything we can to help prevent any further spread.

There will be no movement of horses on or off the yard, and all non-essential visitors and services have been stopped.

The health and welfare of our horses, along with those in the surrounding equestrian community, is our absolute priority.

We are treating this situation with the utmost seriousness, following veterinary advice and putting all necessary biosecurity measures in place. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and keep everyone updated as things develop.

If you have any questions, please feel free to message me privately. We would kindly ask that people avoid speculation or spreading rumours, as this can cause unnecessary worry. We will share accurate information as soon as we are able to.

We will let everyone know once the yard has been given the all-clear.

This is obviously not news we ever wanted to share, but we believe being responsible and transparent is the right thing to do.

Thank you all for your understanding, support and cooperation during this difficult time. ❤️🐴
