It could be more than just a bad day.
I'm Dr. Devereux, and I specialize in equine chiropractic care to help horses move more freely, feel more comfortable, and perform at their best. Chiropractic adjustments can support alignment, improve range of motion, and help relieve tension caused by everyday work or past injuries.
With many horses in full work or active show schedules this time of year, added physical stress could lead to soreness, reduced flexibility, and limited range of motion.
Chiropractic adjustments improve comfort, increase flexibility, and enhance ease of movement, all of which support your horse's performance and overall health.
Now through September 18th, I'm offering 15% off equine chiropractic care.
📞 Call to schedule or learn more.

Deciding to remove a horse's eye, known as enucleation, is never taken lightly. However, in some cases, it's the most humane and effective option for relieving chronic pain and improving long-term quality of life. Horses can develop a variety of eye conditions that can lead to permanent blindness, discomfort, or even ongoing infections, compromising their overall health. When medical management is no longer effective, enucleation may offer the clearest path to a pain-free future. Understanding when to consider this procedure, what factors to evaluate, and how horses adjust afterward is essential for making the best choice for your equine companion.
When is Enucleation Necessary?
Enucleation is typically considered when:
The eye is blind and painful due to conditions like severe trauma, chronic uveitis (moon blindness), glaucoma, or intraocular tumors.
The eye has sustained irreparable damage or infection.
Medical treatments have failed to alleviate chronic pain or restore vision.
In such cases, removing the affected eye can eliminate pain and prevent further complications.
Questions to Consider:
Is the affected eye causing persistent pain or discomfort?
Has the eye lost vision, and is the condition irreversible?
Have all other treatment options been exhausted without success?
Will enucleation improve my horse's quality of life?
Consulting with a veterinarian can provide clarity on the best course of action for your horse's specific condition.
Post-Surgery Outlook:
Horses generally adapt well to the loss of one eye. Studies indicate that many horses return to their previous activities, including competition, after recovery. Owners often report noticeable improvements in their horse's demeanor and comfort levels post-surgery.
For more detailed information and guidance, consult with your equine veterinarian.

When it comes to laminitis, a quick soak won’t cut it. For ice therapy to be effective, a horse’s feet must remain in ice water for 48 to 72 continuous hours—not just a few hours intermittently. That consistent cold is what truly helps prevent further damage. Here’s what you need to know:
🔹 It’s a commitment.
The water temperature needs to stay between 41–50°F, which means frequent ice additions (about every two hours) and constant monitoring. It’s labor-intensive, but it matters.
🔹 Why so long?
Sustained icing slows down damaging enzymes in the hoof and reduces inflammation by lowering tissue metabolism. A few hours isn’t enough to create the full protective effect.
🔹 It’s not a cure—but it’s powerful.
While icing helps alleviate pain and inflammation, your veterinarian must also diagnose and treat the underlying cause, which is often related to metabolic or dietary issues.
🔹 Do it right.
The ice water must cover the entire hoof and lower limb. Poor application = poor results.
🔹 Consider where it’s done.
Because of the intense monitoring required, long-duration icing is often most effectively done at a horse hospital or equine clinic. These facilities offer around-the-clock care, systems to maintain ice at critical low temps, and safe, confined spaces to keep your horse comfortable and secure.
🔹 Talk to your vet first.
Laminitis is serious. Talk with your veterinarian immediately to develop a unified treatment plan.
Long-duration ice therapy can mean the difference between recovery and irreversible damage.
