Heaves is a common “catch all” term used to describe different types of a non-infectious chronic respiratory disease where horses are having difficulty breathing. Heaves has also been called COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) or now "equine asthma." In this week's podcast we discuss how Heaves can impact your horse and how it manifests itself in our animals. We then discuss why nutrition plays a key role in managing this condition and what you can do to make your horse's lives better. The good news is, Heaves can be managed and horses can live happy and healthy lives with this condition. It just takes a careful and focused management plan.
