Causes - Diagnosis - Prevention - Treatment - EGUS
August is Gastric Ulcer Awareness Month. It is estimated that between 50-90% of horses (including feral or wild horses) may be affected by Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS). It does not seem to matter whether they are performance or show horses, or backyard or pasture pals. So what can horse owners do to mitigate the chances of their horse being affected by ulcers?
Dr. Kathryn Golden from Northern Lakes Equine Practice joined the Hooved Animal Humane Society to discuss the causes, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of EGUS.
