MARE WITH EQUINE METABOLIC SYNDROME
This mare illustrates the problems associated with breeding from mares that have Equine Metabolic Syndrome. This is a hormonal disease of horses that causes their tissues to be resistant to the effect of insulin.
This mare was in the PPP for her last 3 pregnancies and she produced 3 great foals, before that she had only produced 4 foals from 9 pregnancies.

MARE WITH INFECTIONS RESISTANT TO ANTIBIOTICS
I first met this mare in 2005 when she showed signs of imminent premature foaling. Although the foal was born bright and healthy he had poor cuboidal bone ossification and was euthanized.
The next year the mare started in the Problem Pregnancy Prevention Program and responded well to treatment. She produced a cracking filly on her due date and went straight back in foal.
