The veterinarians of the William R. Pritchard Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital want to help clients protect their horses from influenza, tetanus, dental problems and other health risks.
To provide flexibility and convenience to horse owners, the Large Animal Clinic offers a discounted "package" of preventive care services.
For $210 per year, a 15% discount off the regular fee, horses receive the following services:
An annual physical examination with assessment of all body systems and body condition score
Vaccines: Tetanus, sleeping sickness (WEE/EEE), West Nile Virus and rabies
Semi-annual fecal egg counts and deworming plan
Evaluation of diet and nutrition
Annual dental examination and routine float
This package is available to clients of the Field Service and horse owners who bring their animals to the teaching hospital.
Members of the Equine Preventive Care Program may opt for other services for additional fees. Importantly, enrolled clients receive a credit of $3,000 toward the cost of colic surgery at the teaching hospital if one of their horses requires surgical treatment.
