It's ideal weather to be a horse, and a person who spends time with horses 🐴☀! With summer in full swing, horses are out and about at shows, clinics, camps, trail rides, and visiting new barns.
A few simple biosecurity habits can go a long way toward keeping your horse (and everyone else's!) healthy:
🐴 Don't share water buckets or feed tubs
🧽 Clean and disinfect equipment between horses
💧 Bring your own water when possible
🤲 Wash hands between handling unfamiliar horses
🌡️ Monitor your horse's temperature when traveling
📋 Make sure vaccinations are up to date
🚨 Have an isolation plan and contact your veterinarian if your horse develops a fever, nasal discharge, or other signs of illness
Bring home memories from all of your outings with your equine partner, not contagious diseases 😷!
