For the past 20 years, Great Lakes Equine has served horse owners and the equine community proudly with compassionate, high-quality veterinary care. To commemorate this milestone, we’d love for you to join us for an afternoon of food, music, games and family-friendly fun!
Sheath cleaning may seem like a routine task, but what we discover during the exam can make a critical difference in a horse’s long-term health.
Join us at Great Lakes Equine for our annual Haul In serving horse owners from across Hortonville.
Eye injuries in horses can be alarming, and one of the most common – and painful – issues they face is a corneal ulcer.
Rubber, Steel, Aluminum, Glue on, Nail on, screw on… horseshoes come in all styles, shapes, sizes, and attachment. But when do you need them, and should you use them?
As your horse ages, it's really important to adjust their diet and routine care to accommodate their evolving needs. This can include following the best feeding practices for senior horses.
Limb deformities in foals, including contraction, laxity, and angular abnormalities, are common but treatable conditions that require early detection and timely intervention to ensure proper growth and long-term health.
If your horse experiences an injury or wound to the lower leg, below the knee or hock, special care should be taken in order to avoid complications. The application of a cast can be an important step in the healing process to protect the injured area and help ensure a successful recovery.
While some horse owners keep opossums away due to a link to EPM, the risk is quite low. Opossums can actually be quite beneficial as they consume very large quantities of ticks, which can help lower the potential for many tick-related equine diseases.
Occasionally, a horse may experience a condition related to the digestive system (which includes the gastrointestinal tract) known as impaction. When this happens, the impaction needs to be cleared. Due to the sheer size of this system, however, that is often easier said than done.
We are welcoming new patients at Great Lakes Equine. We can't wait to meet you and your horse. Book an appointment today.
