Case Study: The Weekend (Horse) Warrior

Dr. Nicole Rambo and equine specialist Heather discuss the case of a 7-year-old quarter horse preparing for trail riding season. They delve into diet adjustments needed for transitioning from winter to summer, focusing on maintaining weight and muscle mass. Key topics include the differences in dietary requirements for off-season and peak trail season, dealing with hyperactivity linked to sweet feeds, and the importance of matching diet to the horse's workload. They also touch on additional considerations like gut health and electrolyte supplementation for horses engaging in intense weekend rides. Listeners are encouraged to reach out with their unique equine cases via phone, email, or social media.
