STOP PRESS, our Equine Winter Good-Do-er Program has landed!
We are delighted to announce that we have just been accepted to host a Winter Good-Doers Support Programme! Working with qualified, independent Equine Nutritionist Jennifer Little, the programme runs from October to March and provides you with up to date, practical advice and support with your equine weight management challenges. You will be able to attend six online meetings, with opportunity for a one-to-one session with Jennifer as well! Jennifer will guide you through the challenges and pitfalls of achieving weightloss whilst keeping your horse happy, not hangry!
Weight gain in the summer months is normal, but can be excessive and hard to manage – and if it isn’t followed by normal, healthy weight loss in the winter, it’s easy to find yourself in a constant battle to control your horse’s waistline! Going it alone is no fun, so we are inviting you to participate in this programme to get help and support alongside other committed horse owners fighting the same battle!
Getting involved is easy – ask your HNVG Equine Vet to body condition score your horse and have a quick chat about the programme. Tell us if you think you might be interested in joining in, and if you are we will get in touch with more details. Hurry though – the first online session is on 14th November!
Not got a vet visit booked in? No problem – you can email us photos of your horse to assess and do an approximate body condition score, or for a more in-depth chat call our Large Animal Reception Team on 01608 730085 to make an appointment with one of our Equine Vets. Photographs should be sent to equine@hooknortonvets.co.uk, with Good-Doer in the subject line. Don’t forget to include your name and your horse’s name!
