Thank you for choosing RESM and we appreciate your continued support!

With foaling season rapidly approaching it is imperative to be properly equipped for any potential emergency that may arise.

Prior to delivery, a safe, well-bedded and clean foaling area should be readily available.

Around this time, you should have a foaling kit set up, contact your veterinarian to make sure they are aware a foal is coming, and be sure you have a proper understanding of labor and delivery.

Recommended supplements for both mare and foal that our clinic offers:

• Platinum Performance Wellness and Performance
• Platinum Performance Bio-Sponge Probiotic
• Bonewise Vitamin and Mineral Supplement
• Fullbucket Foal Probiotic

Has your horse gotten a fecal test lately?

A fecal egg count is a test used to gauge the presence of strongyle or ascarid eggs in a small amount of feces. This examination is the most straightforward way to identify the specific classification of parasite. Afterwards, a proper targeted method of treatment will be tailored specifically to your equines needs.

Signs your equine may have worms:

• loss of weight
• rough or dull coat
• diarrhea or constipation
• colic

“But I wormed my horse last month!”

Each de-wormer is specifically designed to treat for a select species of parasite. Therefore, you may not have de-wormed for the parasite your horse currently has. Be sure to change the type of treatment as parasites can gain a resistance. Having a basic rotation of wormers is necessary in order to avoiding resistance. Prevention is key!

It’s as simple as dropping off a small fecal sample at our office. No appointment with the veterinarian necessary.

We have a wormer schedule available in the office upon request.
