Equine flu can be costly
It’s the flu season, not only for people but also for horses. It’s late in the show and futurity cycle, but having horses at these events can expose the animals to other horses and pathogens that may infect them with flu. Dr. April Knudson, manager of Merial Equine Veterinary Services says that if flu isn’t treated and gets bad enough to send a horse to the hospital, it’s costly. Equine flu is one of the leading causes of respiratory disease in horses. Dr. Knudson says there are ways to prevent infection.
