Sampling for Infectious Disease
Sampling for Infectious Disease
Contagious diseases, whether transmitted directly or indirectly, can have far-reaching consequences within a breeding program. These diseases, though rare, have the capacity to significantly impact fertility and can be transmitted between stallions and mares, posing a risk to the overall reproductive health of the breeding herd. At Malton Equine, we recognize the importance of proactive management to mitigate these risks, safeguarding both the health of the animals and the success of the breeding season.
For stallions engaged in natural coverings throughout the breeding season, we advocate for periodic sampling as a proactive measure. This ongoing monitoring allows us to detect any potential infectious threats promptly, enabling swift intervention to contain and manage the situation. By incorporating rigorous sampling into the breeding routine, we aim to create a secure and disease-free environment, enhancing the overall success and health of the breeding program.
Emergency veterinary attention for your horse may be required at any time of the day or night. We provide veterinary care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to registered clients.
