  • Mixed review

    This podcast could be so good if the host were to actually listen to their guests. There is no rapport, no flowing conversation and the whole thing feels stiff and awkward. Such a shame as the guests are brilliantly knowledgeable in their fields and could be engaged so much more. I won’t be listening again.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Managing Chronic Conditions in Horses
Q: Are generic versions of common medications for horses with chronic health conditions safe and effective?
There are no generic versions for PPID; only compounded medications which are less regulated and can be risky to rely upon.
Managing Chronic Conditions in Horses
Q: How should owners handle summer sores or other wounds that linger?
Management includes confirming the diagnosis through biopsy, ensuring proper bandaging, and addressing any underlying infections or complications.
Managing Chronic Conditions in Horses
Q: How often should you retest a horse confirmed with PPID who is being treated with pergolide?
Retesting should occur three months after diagnosis to assess the effects of medication, with further retesting based on individual clinical response.
Mare Reproductive Problems
Q: Dr. Ward, how does age affect the likelihood of a safe pregnancy and delivery in horses?
Older maiden mares face a higher risk during delivery due to cervical rigidity, which can lead to complications like dystocia, while aged mares that have been pregnant before usually fare better.
Mare Reproductive Problems
Q: Dr. Ward, what diagnostic tests do you use to determine if a mare is suitable to breed?
We conduct a breeding soundness evaluation, including checking for lameness, conformation, and history, along with ultrasounds to identify any abnormalities or conditions that might affect fertility.
