WWW.YOURHORSE.CO.UKMare rescued with foal at foot keeps sanctuary staff on their toesThe Mare and Foal Sanctuary has discovered that a Welsh moorland mare it rescued before Christmas was carrying a very special gift.Nia was taken in by the charity with her filly foal Netty, who were part of a herd of 69 semi-feral Welsh Moorlands rescued from Merthyr Common in a joint operation involving several animal welfare organisations. Scant resources, fighting and unmonitored breeding on the Common had caused serious welfare concerns.When the pair arrived at the sanctuary in Devon, the team invited its supporters to choose their names. Nia and Netty were selected from hundreds of entries in an online competition last December.At the time, the Sanctuary Care team looking after her didnt know that Nia was in the early stages of pregnancy. Recent tests have confirmed that shes likely to foal in late summer or early autumn.Netty and Nia have settled well at the Newton Abbot sanctuary since their rescue.Its thought Nia is about four years old.Despite the name of the charity, sanctuary births dont happen frequently, as Head of Sanctuary Care Sally Burton explained.You might think a charity called The Mare and Foal Sanctuary would be the place to find lots of foals, but the birth of one here is quite a big deal for us, she said. We have a strict non-breeding policy to reduce the number of unwanted horses, so all colts, when trained and ready for treatment, are castrated at the sanctuary.Rescued foals sometimes arrive needing our specialist care. But only if a mare is in foal before being brought here will births happen at the sanctuary, and thats what has happened in this case. Nia ran unrestricted on the Welsh commons, gave birth to Netty, and we estimate she became pregnant again shortly after the birth.The good news is that Nia is getting the very best care now at our peaceful Beech Trees Veterinary and Welfare Assessment Centre in Newton Abbot. We have a well-rehearsed foal-watch procedure where a team of carers will monitor her carefully to make sure she has everything she needs for a healthy and successful pregnancy and delivery.Horse Care Team Member Kayleigh Bull has handler-responsibility for Nia and says the whole Sanctuary team is buzzing about the news of Nia being in foal.Were all trying to estimate when itll happen, and September seems to be the popular choice, she said. Equines are pregnant for about 11 months, so we think Nia gave birth to Netty and was covered very soon after.When Nia and Netty first arrived, we gave them time and space to adjust to their new surroundings. They settled in well and have both responded fantastically to handling and training. Nia is an absolute dream to work with. Shes calm and confident, has lots of character, responds well to attention and affection and is a great mother to Netty. Shes been so caring towards Netty but will also firmly tell her when shes doing something wrong. Its lovely for us to watch and I cant wait to see Nia with a brand new foal.Another mare and foal, Dartmoor ponies Chandrani and Chandler, came to the sanctuary in at around the same time and we gradually introduced them. They share a field now and seem to enjoy the companionship. Chandler and Netty have been playing, growing and learning together and Nia and Chandrani both seem very settled and calm watching over them.As a team were making sure that Nia is getting regular vet checks and all the nutrients and vitamins she needs for a healthy pregnancy. When shes ready to give birth, well monitor her around-the-clock and have staff on-site overnight watching our field webcams for any birthing signs because nearly all equine deliveries happen at night. Being outdoors is the most natural environment for ponies, so the field she knows best is where Nia will feel most comfortable and stress-free giving birth.If everything goes smoothly and Nia is comfortable, we hope to catch it all live on webcam and give our supporters the chance to see the whole event as it happens. We want everyone to feel part of this special journey for Nia and understand a little more about equine care. I just hope itll be me on shift that night because Ive never been present for a birth before and would hate to miss Nias!Further readingNew names for smuggled mare and her adorable days old foalFrom feral and scared to most wonderful ponies: Mares transformed in forever home28-year-old veteran and 100 cob among Search for a Star qualifiers at Vale ViewThe post Mare rescued with foal at foot keeps sanctuary staff on their toes appeared first on Your Horse.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni 264 Views

EVENTINGNATION.COMSunday Links from EcoVetView this post on InstagramA post shared by Jj Sillman (@skipperdoodlefritz)My last three days have been spent in the forests of Flagstaff, Arizona, where weve just tackled the first of two weekends at the Coconino Horse Trials. Galloping through some shady trees has been quite the welcome change of pace after the disgustingly terrible heat wave weve all been experiencing the last two weeks. The folks here at Coconino put on a great event, and its been a lot of laughs and shenanigans between the infamous Flagstaff thunderstorms.Having two recognized events and two mini/combined test events all within the span of ten days is monumental benefit to us mountain range folks, especially us Utahns who only see three recognized events each year (unless we want to brave an eight-plus-hour road trip). As such, weve brought our entire barn along to take advantage of the opportunity to cram in some experience in a new environment, and so I write this from the comfort of an air mattress in the horse stall of a trailer, my luxurious accommodations for the next week (its got solar, so its a relatively-cushy setup, to be fair).My next week will consist of helping to round up info on the top riders in the world as more Olympic names are announced (check in here to see the current named teams and individuals) and attempting to stay on my brand new pony while we get crushed by some twelve-year-olds in Barbie pink here in the woods. Check back in next week as I dive into the intricacies of imposter syndrome, and send some extra air vest canisters.U.S. Weekend ActionBouckaert Equestrian H.T. and Area III Eventing Championships (Chattahoochee Hills, GA) [Website] [Entries] [Ride Times] [Scoring]Full Moon Farm HT (Finksburg, MD) [Website] [Entries] [Ride Times] [Volunteer] [Scoring]Inavale Farm HT (Philomath, OR) [Website] [Entries] [Ride Times] [Volunteer][Scoring]Larkin Hill H.T.

She competes regularly in British Showjumping with her horse Apple.About the productThe Catago FIR-Tech Full Grip Riding Tights are a sporty and feminine design equipped with FIR-Tech technology.

It helps to increase the blood circulation, therefore delivering higher levels of oxygen round the body to muscle groups targeted when training. The Infra-Red technology helps reduce tension, aches and inflammation. Catago FIR-Tech Full Grip Ladies Riding Tights Black What were your first impressions?I was very surprised with how lightweight and soft the riding tights were and was very excited to try them out, especially with the warmer summer starting.How was the sizing & fit?I found them very true to size. Im usually a UK6 / XS and these fitted perfectly. The only criticism I would have is as Im short (5ft2) I found them on the slightly longer side. I prefer my riding tights to finish just above the ankle and these finished past them. However, as they are so thin this hasnt affected me, and its just a personalpreference.Did the product live up to expectations and how did you test the product?The riding tights certainly matched the main selling point, making me extremely interested in wearing them! They are advertised with their FIR-Tec technology which helps increase blood circulation therefore delivering more oxygen around the body helping reduce tension, aches, and inflammation. While I suffer from a knee that swells and aches and have recently broken my back (now in recovery), I thought these would be perfect for me and I can tell the difference between when Ive worn them and when I have not. I notice a big difference in my knee with it not swelling and aching after riding and going into the next day still being fine. My back also did not ache as much as that compared to when these are not worn.Would you recommend to a friend?Yes, Id highlyrecommend these riding tights especially if you suffer from any previous injuries or aches.What was your favourite feature?Obviously, the technology is an exceptional advantage to these riding tights but I also love how they are super lightweight and breathable without being see-through!!

BLOG.CITRUS-LIME.COMTried & Tested: WeatherBeeta ComFiTec Hexi Shield Combo Neck Fly Rug in Silver/TealSam is the Redpost Wearhouse manager. About the productThe WeatherBeeta ComFiTec Hexi Shield Combo Neck Fly Rug delivers over 55% UV protection and is engineered with a lightweight 100% nylon mesh with a unique hexagon weave design snag-resistant mesh fabric, which provides increased durability and strength compared to traditional fly rugs.The yarn boasts reflective properties to help reflect the sun and heat away for additional comfort for your horse, while the ultra belly wrap, integrated neck cover and two-piece full wrap tail flap wraps around the horses quarters to ensure maximum coverage. Shop the WeatherBeeta ComFiTec Hexi Shield Combo Neck Fly Rug What were your first impressions?Looks like an excellent quality rug, I have a rug ripper in the field, and I was hoping that this rug would survive the longest. I loved the fact it has a big neck, a belly flap, and a large tail flap to ensure my horse was covered. The memory foam withers relief pads are also a bonus.How was the sizing & fit?Ive always liked Weatherbeeta and always comes up true to size. The rug is a tougher material than normal fly rugs meaning that it does take a day or two to settle on the horse from being in the packaging. I chose this size as I already have wb turnouts and found it true to size.How did you test the product?The rug is on my horse which isnt the rug ripper and has been on him for 4 weeks now and any other rug would have holes or little nicks in it and this one has nothing which is great and means the tougher rugs really do work, and it is worth spending that little bit more for the tougher rugs. I feel confident that this rug will last and I wont need to purchase another one soon.Would you recommend it to a friend?I would highly recommend this rug to a friend not just because of the toughness of it but also because of the size and coverage it gives the horse or pony. Im also considering buying another one for my other horse.What was your favourite feature?My favourite features of the rug have got to be the memory foam pads protecting the wither specially as my horse is an Ex racehorse with a high wither and also the hard wearing of the rug, meaning he stays protected from the flys without having any holes in the rug due to my other horse.

WWW.YOURHORSE.CO.UKConcussion and brain injuries in horse riders: what you need to knowDid you know that research has showed that women sustain more frequent and more severe head and brain injuries in sports, including horse riders, than their male counterparts? Ongoing research is evidencing that womens cervical spine and neck strength have a considerable impact on the outcome of a brain injury, due to the way that the head moves during an accident, a fall or a collision. This results in the brain moving differently, and consequently impacting the level of damage at a neuronal level. So if you fall off your horse or are kicked in the head, be aware that due to the difference in neck strength, there could potentially be a head injury risk.Further research also indicates that hormonal fluctuations and stages of the menstrual cycle can also impact post-injury symptoms, recovery time, and severity. Evidence suggests that where a woman is in her menstrual cycle when she sustains her brain injury can have a significant impact on the outcome. Recovery from injury is also impacted by hormonal fluctuations, requiring understanding from treating professionals that long-term symptoms can flare or worsen during ovulation, luteal phase, or menstruation, depending on the individual. This research is relatively new, and most healthcare providers and doctors may not be aware of it, so be sure to mention this when you seek medical advice, especially if your symptoms are lingering or worsening.Some studies have indicated that women have longer recovery times overall and may have more long-term symptoms than males, so it is really important to raise concerns and be aware of your cycle.Brain injuries: the researchAccidents when horse riding are common, and while not all of these are serious, in some cases a fall or blow to the head can lead to brain injury or trauma. Currently, it does not take much of a search to find out the high prevalence of brain injury that is sustained through sports. There have been several class action claims raised across the globe in rugby, football, and boxing hitting the headlines, but it might come as a surprise to hear that horse-related injuries accounted for a huge 22% of all sports-related head injuries studied (1).The vast majority of head injuries in riders are sustained by a fall from the horse, but they can also occur due to kicks too. Another study that analysed data between 2003 and 2012 concluded that horse riding accidents accounted for the largest number of brain injuries than in any other sport (2). Over the 20 years Ive worked with individuals with traumatic brain injuries, horse-related injuries are the most common sporting injury that I have encountered, so learning more about them and how to prepare yourself in case it should happen to you is vital.What is a brain injury?Brain injuries vary greatly and there are three types: mild, moderate and severe. All of these could potentially be caused by a horse-related head injury, and the severity is dependent on several factors, such as the length of time the rider is unconscious and the length of time of post-traumatic amnesia. In the UK, the statistics are that a brain injury is sustained every 90 seconds, but not everyone reports their injuries, which means the numbers are considerably higher than the data suggests.Mild brain injuries in horse ridersMild brain injuries (such as concussion) can have either brief or no loss of consciousness, and symptoms can include vomiting, dizziness, memory recall issues, tiredness, and headaches. Symptoms can vary greatly but mild doesnt always mean there is no long-term impact.Moderate brain injuries in horse ridersModerate brain injuries will be marked by a period of unconsciousness for up to 24 hours, and there will likely be signs of trauma such as a skull fracture, bleeding, or contusions. There may be indications from brain scans of damage, although some scans do not pick up all brain injuries.Severe brain injuries in horse ridersSevere brain injuries are marked by longer periods of unconsciousness, more visible damage and lifelong and life-changing outcomes.When to seek medical help after a fallFallen off your horse? How do you know if you need to dash to A&E? Firstly, understanding the wide range of symptoms that exist with a concussion is important. While most people will know that signs of sleepiness, vomiting, or nausea could be indicators of a potential concussion, there are several other symptoms not so well known. Other physical symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and sensitivity to light or noise can also serve as red flags. In addition, subtle cues such as ringing in the ears, altered perception of movement, or balance issues may hint at underlying concerns.Cognitive difficulties such as memory lapses, trouble focusing, and slowed cognitive processing are commonly observed following a concussion. These challenges may appear as struggles with word retrieval, cloudy thinking, or a confusion. Emotional shifts, including sudden mood swings, irritability, and heightened anxiety, can also be indicative of concussion-related issues that warrant attention.Symptoms of concussionConcussions have a profound impact on an individuals well-being and performance across domains, at work, home, and play. The aftermath of a concussion can limit a persons capacity to carry out certain tasks, resulting in decreased productivity and potential safety risks. Post-concussion cognitive challenges may hinder decision-making skills, focus, and overall cognitive function, directly influencing performance and efficiency.Emotional struggles arising from a concussion can trigger heightened stress levels, diminished motivation, and interpersonal relationship difficulties with the impact of this being far-reaching.Sleep disturbances and disruptions in maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine are common consequences of both physical and mental symptoms post-concussion. Its important to note that these effects are not merely psychological responses to head injury; they are tangible and affect individuals in varying ways. Many will experience issues with mood and acknowledgment of these symptoms if they perceive that only a concussion has been sustained.Generally speaking, these symptoms will diminish after a few days, although sometimes they can linger for up to two weeks. It is not uncommon for symptoms to continue past this point, leading to post-concussion symptoms. However, if there is a worsening of symptoms or no change after 72 hours, this is cause for concern.Any concussion warrants medical attention, so any fall where the head is affected, or a kick to the head, no matter how minor, should be checked as its better to be safe than sorry.Wearing a riding hat: there is still a riskYou should always wear a helmet when you ride, because they can prevent and reduce the risk of injuries to the skull, such as fractures and open head injuries. However, while an up-to-standard riding hat is vital, it, unfortunately, does not prevent concussions or other brain injury entirely. Therefore, dont assume that just because youve worn a helmet means you dont need to get medical attention or you shouldnt follow other safety steps. Your brain still moves around in the skull with a helmet on, which results in damage to the neurons at a cellular level. Helmets certainly do provide protection, but there is still a risk.Recovering from a head injuryRecovery from concussion can be challenging, partly because the injury is often not perceived as severe enough to warrant the rest and reintegration to activity that is recommended. There is no need to lie in a dark room for 2-3 days. You can still go about some daily activities, although at a low level and only to the point before symptoms worsen. Reduce your load for at least 3-4 days. Avoid computer work as this can increase symptoms due to the visual processing systems struggling after a concussion.But what about getting back on the saddle? Exercise and riding must be gradually reintroduced and only after your symptoms have diminished. Often people will feel relatively okay, perhaps the headaches have reduced, and only some fogginess and tiredness remains. However, this is still too soon to return to riding, particularly if the injury occurred within the last two weeks.Your brain is uniqueUnfortunately, there is no manual or set timeframe for return to riding, as each person and brain recovers differently. A brain is as unique as a fingerprint, and any damage impacts each brain differently, so the remaining symptoms should not be ignored, even if you have received a clear scan. Therefore, getting back to riding before youre ready can end badly.While there is no one set timeframe for returning to horse riding after a brain injury, what we do know is that there is a considerable risk to the brain that occurs with a second impact, and post-concussion youre more susceptible to a greater level or damage with a second concussion.How to reduce your risk of head injuryThere are things you can do to reduce your risks when riding or handling a horse. After all, even walking down the road or driving to the stable carries a level of risk, but we still do this multiple times every day. There are protective measures to consider when riding to lower your risk of a brain injury:Ensure you have a well fitting riding hat that meets industry standards, as well as protective clothing.Keep up with training and continue to hone your riding skills to ensure safety and competency. Confidence and capability enable you to handle the horse safely and reduce the risk of falls.Know yourself and your horse. Staying in tune with both of you ensures you can preempt any changes in behaviour, that your horse feels safe and you both feel calm and relaxed.Be vigilant of your environment to ensure you can anticipate any potential hazards, distractions or obstacles. Stay alert and ensure you are well rested and well before any rides.Pay attention to your own body and mind. If you experience any cognitive or physical symptoms, return home or stop the session and monitor how you feel. This is particularly important if you have had a previous fall or are just feeling out of sorts.Be sure to rest and recharge between sessions, allowing time for recovery from the longer or more tiring rides or practices. If you feel unwell, skip your ride for the day to recuperate.What to do after a fallAfter a fall or an injury to the head, do not return to riding until you have been advised to your brain needs to be given time to heal. If you havent sought medical attention, do not ride until symptoms have subsided. Should you experience a return of symptoms, cease activity and seek medical attention. In the event that your symptoms worsen or there is no improvement within 72 hours, ensure you see a medical professional. If you experience severe symptoms call 999 or attend A&E. A quick response can ensure swift treatment and reduce the risk of long-term symptoms and damage.By ensuring you keep these tips in mind, you reduce the risk of serious injury and can enjoy riding, reaping the mental benefits longer term, allowing you to continue in your much loved sport with confidence.Main image: copyright Your Horse Library/Kelsey Media LtdResearch links(1) https://www.stir.ac.uk/news/2024/january-2024-news/study-reveals-longer-term-impact-of-sport-related-brain-injuries/#:~:text=Researchers%20 also%20found%20that%20 certain,%2C%20and%20football%20(13%25).(2) Winkler, E.
