This is our most comprehensive and popular course, jam-packed with so much information!
This class is intended to help people know what to do immediately following an emergency that happens either close to home, or at home. The intention is to help you feel comfortable with handling the situation. We cover preventative measures, pain source identification, conditioning a horse to accept treatment, stretching, how to properly take vitals and identifying what is normal vs. abnormal, wound care (bandaging), identifying when to call the vet and knowing what information to gather before that call, dealing with lacerations, punctures, eye injuries, bites & stings, seizure, casting, shock, poison, burns, lameness/hoof issues, nosebleed, choke, collapse, heat exhaustion, shock, and identifying signs of colic. New horse owners, as well as the most seasoned, find this course invaluable. Some even say a lifesaver. |
