Cloverbud Curriculum - Knocking Off the Dirt! | Horses, just like people, need to stay clean in order to not only look good but also stay healthy. Grooming not only gets the horse clean; it also relaxes them and allows you to look for injuries, parasites, or skin conditions. |

Cloverbud Curriculum - Do You Have Horse Sense! | Horses do not speak in words, but they still communicate. They use body
language. Understanding horse “language” is important when it comes to safely
handling horses. There are several ways horses position their bodies in order to
talk to each other. |

Cloverbud Curriculum - Puzzling Horse Parts! | So many activities and interactions with horses require you to know what the
parts of the horse are, where they’re located, and how they function. It’s also
important to use the correct terminology
when speaking with others about horses. For
example, telling the vet that a horse has a
wound on the withers is more specific than just
saying on the back. |

Fall Panicum Toxicity In Horses | Fall Panicum is a common annual warm season grass that can be hepatotoxic (cause liver disease) in horses under certain growing conditions. Toxicity in horses was documented in Virginia in 2004 when fourteen horses were diagnosed with liver disease as a result of consuming Fall Panicum hay. Currently, there have been several cases of suspected toxicity in horses grazing Fall Panicum in Northern Virginia pastures since late summer 2015. The trigger that causes toxicity and the amount of grass required to cause illness are not well understood, thus proper identification and treatment are essential for recovery. |
