Boehringer Ingelheim are sponsoring the laboratory tests for Cushing’s disease from 1st June to 31st October 2017. Over 80% of horses and ponies that develop laminitis have an underlying endocrine disease i.e. Cushing’s or Equine Metabolic Syndrome. Cushing’s can cause other debilitating symptoms including weight loss and lethargy. Testing is simple, and can be done from a resting blood sample.
Please visit www.talkaboutlaminitis.co.uk to obtain your voucher code, and hand to the vet at the time of taking the blood sample. Professional fees and P+P still apply.
