Abortion in Horses

Did you think your mare was in foal but now that the time has come for her to foal, she is obviously not pregnant? Abortion in horses may result from a variety of causes.

Predicting Foaling Time

I usually see my baby horses being born. My mares think it is perfectly normal that I am busy helping. They would probably miss me if I wasn’t there. Or so I like to think anyway.  Many years of watching, sleeping in the barn and not sleeping at all have taught me some of the [...]

Kentucky Derby Tragedy
