Do you have a chunky horse or pony? There is a high chance they may have EMS. A cresty neck and abnormal fat deposits can be very suggestive of this disease.
EMS causes horses and ponies to become resistant to insulin – this results in high blood glucose and high blood insulin!
This high blood glucose commonly causes Laminitis!! Every horse owners worse nightmare!!
This is especially seen September, October through to March with the rich spring/summer pasture!
If you’re suspicious that your horse may have EMS get in contact today to book in a blood test and management plan 🌟
