Stall and Stable 48: Helping Horses in Need

Published: Sept. 11, 2020, 7 p.m.

There’s a wonderful surge in horse adoptions this year. It’s never enough, but it’s something! Many rescue horses, however, are in poor health, and that leaves the adopters struggling to rehabilitate, support, and nurture the horses back to good physical and mental health. This recovery process can be very confusing, and the information available that is specific to rehabilitation is limited. Our guest in this episode is Dr. Stacie Boswell, an equine veterinarian who recently published a book titled, The Ultimate Guide to Horses in Need.

Helena talks with Dr. Boswell about the most common issues facing rescued horses, and how we, as caregivers, can best support their return to good health. Listen in!
