Worming Advice

With a strong commitment to the horse population and the worrying increase in wormer resistance, the vets at Wolfgar developed a new worming programme in 2005 and trialled it with a few of our clients who were also worried about resistance developing to wormers and the frequent over use of wormers.

After the success of this trial we have rolled out the Wolfgar worming plan to all our clients and referral cases this year.

An exciting partnership with Rollestones feeds was forged this year to provide faecal worm egg counts to their clients enabling a wider percentage of the horse population of Devon to be wormed only when necessary.

For further information or to arrange a complimentary visit to discuss worming on your yard please contact one of the vets on 01647 24232
