April 26 10am-12pm – Horse Owners Dental 101 by Equine Dentist Gary Biggerstaff
What is going on inside your horse’s mouth? Did you know that recent studies show that 80 percent of undesirable behaviors in our horses are related to discomfort? 80 percent! Often dental issues with our horses can become an “out of sight out of mind” situation despite our best efforts as loving owners. Empower yourself with knowledge! We are flying in our favorite Equine Dentist Gary Biggerstaff from South Carolina. Gary is an accomplished horseman who is dual certified in IAED and EDPA Equine Dentistry associations. Gary has been doing sedation free equine dentistry for over 40 years and has traveled the United States working on horses for the likes of Robert Redford. Gary is also a gentle, knowledgeable horseman and it’s clear the horses like him. He is a down to earth, educator advocating for the horses and using real life examples to explain what is going on inside your horse’s mouth. Gary will cover basic anatomy, common issues, what to look for and more. You won’t want to miss this!
*Gary will also be taking limited appointments to trailer in at Spirit Horse Center to have your horse’s teeth done. Must make an appointment by calling or texting the barn 218-825-4944. At this time all farm call appointment slots for equine dental are filled.
