Horse owners are invited to a free, live webinar on Thursday, October 16, at 7pm to learn how to safeguard their horse’s health with smarter, risk-based parasite control.
The 45-minute session, Horse First: Autumn Worm Control, will be jointly presented by Westgate Labs and Austin Davis Biologics, and hosted by popular horse trainer and content creator Miri Hackett.
Topics will include:
- Why risk assessment matters and the factors that influence this;
- How seasonal changes, including this year’s dry summer, affect parasite burdens;
- Real examples from Miri’s own yard, with horses of different ages and backgrounds;
- Best-practice testing and treatment strategies; and
- Live Q&A and interactive polls with our experts.
Horse owners who join live will also be entered into a giveaway to win worm egg count and EquiSal test kits from Westgate Labs and Austin Davies Biologics.
Miri Hackett, webinar host, said: “Running a busy yard, I know first-hand how confusing parasite control can feel. It’s not always easy to run a test-based programme that takes in the needs of different horses and adapts to weather and environmental changes.
“Add in the coming and going of horses and managing quarantine, without over treating to risk resistance or putting our other horses at risk and this is why it’s so helpful to have expert help to rely on.”
