Central Florida is home to horses of all breeds and disciplines, and boasts one of the most robust equine industries in the country. With a plethora of horses for sale, how do potential buyers know if a particular horse is healthy and well-suited for the desired job? Most equine sale contracts do not contain buy-back clauses, making it critically important for buyers to obtain as much information as possible before purchasing.  A veterinary pre-purchase exam, or PPE, is a great way for buyers to protect their upcoming investment by screening for common health conditions and evaluating for musculoskeletal soundness prior to sale. On this show, Dr. Sally DeNotta, a clinical associate professor and equine extension veterinarian, will share more about this important topic for horse owners.
