Loch Leven Equine Practice

Healthy Horse Club!

Welcome!

Join our new Healthy Horse Club and provide your horse with comprehensive veterinary care throughout the year, whilst budgeting your finances and saving money as well!!

What is the Healthy Horse Club?
Here at Loch Leven Equine Practice we believe that a healthy horse goes a long way to being a happy horse and we know that you do too. Our Healthy Horse Club is specifically designed to provide your horse with all of the essential routine veterinary care that they need throughout the whole year, to give you peace of mind when it comes to your horse’s wellbeing.

By joining the Healthy Horse Club you can ensure that your horse receives his annual vaccinations, dental rasp and ‘general MOT’ in the safe hands of the Loch Leven vets, whilst spreading the cost out over the year and saving you money.

We have put together an all inclusive plan which covers:

• annual vaccinations
• routine dental work
• blood sample
• faecal worm egg count
• personalised worming programme
• detailed health check

The health check will include:

• trot up (to observe for lameness)
• flexion tests
• skin examination
• eye examination
• dental examination
• listening to the heart
• discussion about weight and diet
• foot balance

The visit will also give you the opportunity to discuss any health worries and provide you with reassurance that your horse or pony is still in great shape for his job. At the visit the vets will also take a blood sample, which will be sent off for analysis, and ask for a faecal sample to check for worms.

Just as importantly we wanted to put together a plan which allowed you to budget effectively for your horse’s care – we all know there can be unexpected veterinary bills but by offering quarterly payments we hope this will let you plan for all of your routine treatment throughout the year.

How much is it?
The total price per year is just: £185, making you an initial saving of £47 per year.

Price per Quarter = £46.25

How do I join?
Simply call Liz or Patty in the office and they will send out your joing form and payment plan. After your first payment has been recieved we will then arrange for your first aid kit to be delivered, and you can make an appointment for your horse any time after that.

Practice Standards Scheme

Horse owners always want to ensure their animals recieve the best possible care from their vets, but how can they be sure? The RCVS ensures that all vets are properly qualified and fit to practise but by registering with the voluntary Practice Standards Scheme, practices have to adhere to and maintain the highest standards of veterinary care. We decided that to keep improving our service to our clients and give them piece of mind we should register to join the scheme.

We are delighted to say that we have passed our inspection and are now a Tier 1 Accredited Practice. The inspector was extremely complimentary and in his report wrote, “The chairman noted the comments that the Practice was extremely well run and the standards of knowledge and care of equines was second to none. The Inspector wished to thank Mrs Somerville for the time and effort she had spent preparing for the inspection and was particularly grateful for the faultless presentation of the paperwork.”

FREE Condition score
Our qualified vet nurse, Lynsey McKay is available to come to your yard to condition score your horse and help to advise on feeding through out the winter months. This is a free service for all clients. Please contact the office to book your appointment today.
