The Horse Trust calls on horse owners to 'stop over-worming'Wednesday 22 April 2009
The Horse Trust is launching a campaign to ask horse owners to take a more informed and strategic approach when worming their horses to tackle the growing problem of drug-resistant worms. "Many owners simply buy drugs from veterinary supply stores and give their horse the drug at regular intervals. As many horses have a natural resistance to small redworms, they may not need to be treated for this type of roundworm, so owners could save money by getting their vet to test their horse first," added Paul. comments: related news: Horse Welfare News 22.02.2011 Dead horse found at beauty spot in East Sussex Horse Welfare News 30.10.2009 VetCell becomes UK's first authorised equine stem cell centre Horse Welfare News 07.10.2009 The Horse Trust launches rehoming scheme in response to credit crunch popular news: Horse Welfare News 25.01.2012 Rogue horse trader found guilty of defrauding owners Horse Welfare News 24.01.2012 22 Horses dead in giant barn fire Horse Welfare News 20.01.2012 Third horse found mutilated in two weeks Related ads: | ![]() Complete design & build solution for all your equestrian projects - we believe in delivering the best ![]() With or without your own turnout.
