🚨 Equine Flu Alert – UK 🚨
Cases of equine influenza are currently on the rise across the UK. The Worldwide Association of Equine Dentists (WWAED) is urging all horse owners and riders to stay alert.
⚠️ Watch for signs:
• Coughing
• Nasal discharge
• Fever
• Lethargy
🛑 What to do:
• Keep vaccinations up to date
• Isolate immediately if symptoms appear
• Improve yard biosecurity
• Take temperatures daily
• Avoid unnecessary travel
Equine flu spreads quickly and can impact entire yards — early action is key.
📌 For clear guidance, see the British Horse Society page:

👉 If in doubt: isolate, monitor, and contact your vet.

As a token of appreciation for all our hardworking colleagues in the stable, we would like to honor your work today. We know that equine dentistry would not be possible without equine dental practitioners who treat horses in the field every single day.
We are aware that not every horse, just as in human medicine, requires an endoscopic, radiographic, or even a CT examination, let alone endodontic treatment or extraction. We thank the equine dental practitioners who, during their examinations with headlamp and mirror, are able to detect issues and decide whether further diagnostic evaluation by a specialist is necessary, and who then refer the case accordingly.
