Prenatal Planning: Mare and foal care advice from Dr. Wendy Vaala, Senior Equine Technical Services Specialist for Intervet
From simple checklists to online calculators, breeding calendars offer broodmare owners a way to ensure the best care for their expecting mares and newborn foals. Sometimes, however, the sheer amount of information available can be overwhelming, especially when not all sources agree.
How often should the mare be dewormed? Which vaccinations should be given or avoided? What are the warning signs of problems?
Whether expecting your first foal or your fiftieth, these questions need answers. For the most current information, we spoke to Dr. Wendy Vaala of Intervet. As a veterinarian who has started numerous mare and foal programs, Dr. Vaala believes that pregnant mare care begins well before the mare is actually bred.
