In this episode of the Equine Connection Podcast, Dr. Nicole Rambo and Sarah dive into the crucial topic of protecting equine health during transportation. The discussion covers the stress and physiological impacts of trailering on horses, including elevated cortisol levels, heart rate, and blood sugar. They examine the effects of short versus long-distance hauling and provide research-backed recommendations for minimizing stress, ensuring proper hydration, and maintaining gut health. They also explore the differences in how older and younger horses respond to transport stress, and share best practices for forage management and supporting immune function. Listeners are encouraged to plan their travel and arrival times to optimize their horses' performance and well-being.
