Signs Your Horse May Need Help

  • Not drinking water.
  • Signs of distress, anxiety or discomfort.
  • Lethargy, depression or a horse that’s “off-feed.”
  • Absence of gut sounds.
  • Signs of oncoming lameness: head-bobbing, reluctance to move, odd stance, pain, unwillingness to rise.
  • Bleeding, swelling, evidence of pain.
  • Seizures, paralysis, or “tying up” (form of muscle cramps that ranges in severity from mild stiffness to life-threatening illness).

The horse’s natural behavior makes it accident-prone. Our advice is to be prepared.
