BHS:

We are rerunning what has proven to be a very popular webinar over the couple of times we have held it, and this year I thought it would be helpful to reach out to farriers to see if anyone would like to share it to their clients.

As equine professionals, you are often the first to see subtle decline.

You notice the weight loss before it becomes obvious.
The shortening stride.
The repeated low-grade colic.
The laminitic foot that doesn’t quite stabilise.

Delayed euthanasia is recognised as one of the most significant equine welfare concerns worldwide. Guidance from the British Horse Society and other leading welfare authorities emphasises the importance of planning ahead and assessing quality of life objectively.

For many owners, the difficulty is not lack of care — it is uncertainty:
• How do I know when enough is enough?
• Am I giving up too soon?
• What does euthanasia actually involve?
• What practical arrangements need to be in place?

On March 23rd, specialist equine vet Suzanne Green will deliver an online webinar exploring:

• What euthanasia means in practical terms
• Why delayed euthanasia presents a serious welfare concern
• How to assess mental and physical quality of life
• Why having a euthanasia plan protects both horse and owner

This is a sensitive but essential topic for anyone responsible for equine care.

If you feel this would benefit your clients, please consider sharing.
