In this episode of the On The Rail Podcast, we explore the topic of Wobbler's Disease in horses with equine specialists Dr. John Janicek, Dr. Barrie Grant, and Dr. Steve Reed.
The discussion covers the diagnosis, treatment, and misconceptions surrounding the disease, emphasizing the importance of complete diagnostics to differentiate Wobbler's from other neurological conditions like equine protozoal myeloencephalitis (EPM) and equine degenerative myeloencephalopathy (EDM).
The experts explain the surgical intervention for Wobbler's and share their perspectives on the genetic predisposition to the disease, the impact of horse management practices, and the importance of early diagnosis. They also address the economic considerations and advocate for a more informed approach by owners and veterinarians to avoid premature euthanasia of horses with this condition.
