  • Wonderful!

    I found your podcast after searching for information about the “use of a single bell boot” to fix gait issues in horses. Wow! Loved what I found. Thank you for such an informative podcast. I’m going to listen to all of them. Will share this podcast with my vet.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#23 - Teddy's Story: Living Through ECVM, Wobblers, and the Hardest Goodbye
Q: What is Teddy's Legacy Foundation and what does it do?
The foundation aims to educate the public about ECVM, support diagnostics through grants (starting with CT scans), fund research, and provide education to prevent similar situations for other horse owners.
#23 - Teddy's Story: Living Through ECVM, Wobblers, and the Hardest Goodbye
Q: What ultimately led to the decision to euthanize Teddy?
The combination of severe spinal cord compression, escalating aggression due to pain, and safety concerns made long-term care untenable, despite efforts to manage symptoms and keep him comfortable.
#23 - Teddy's Story: Living Through ECVM, Wobblers, and the Hardest Goodbye
Q: When did you start to suspect something was wrong with Teddy and pursue diagnostics?
After months of progressive signs like tripping, neck pain, and unusual bolting, and ulcers complicating his condition, a thorough neuro exam and a CT scan finally confirmed ECVM with severe cervical arthritis.
#15 - Pain perception in horses and the influence of personality w/ Dr Carrie Ijichi
Q: What would you do if you had infinite funding for research?
I would continue to study individual responses to pain in horses, improving sample sizes and understanding how day-to-day welfare impacts their responses.

Q: Can you give us a little bit more detail about why it's so important to accurately assess stress and pain in horses?
It helps in understanding individual responses to pain and determining appropriate management strategies to ensure horse welfare.
