Everyone knows that vets are absolutely critical to tackling this notorious equine infectious disease but what's it like for vets facing the bug itself and the worried owner? We caught up with two special horse vets to tell us more about what makes the disease 'special' and how outbreaks can be managed effectively.
First, Professor Scott Pirie has over 30 years of experience specialising in internal veterinary medicine at the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies at University of Edinburgh with a particular interest in respiratory infections in horses.
Then, listen on to hear from boots-on-the-ground Veterinary Surgeon Amy Smith from Alnorthumbria Vet Group who is fresh from successfully supporting the eradication of strangles on one large yard in the early part of 2021.
Strangles Awareness Week is a campaign that aims to promote openness around the disease and make biosecurity a part of everday horse care across the Equine Industry. The initiative is a collaborative effort between the British Horse Society, Intervacc, Keeping Britain’s Horses Healthy, Redwings Horse Sanctuary, Scotland’s Rural College’s Premium Assured Strangles Scheme (PASS), Surveillance of Equine Strangles (SES), The (Dick) Royal School of Veterinary Studies and World Horse Welfare and the podcast has been coordinated and produced by Redwings Horse Sanctuary.
You can find more information about the campaign and share resources on Facebook or YouTube
