Caring For Horses
At A-Z Animal Care, we understand the importance of caring for horses, even though we don’t offer grooming services for them just yet. However, we are fully licensed to stock a variety of horse worming products, providing essential care for your horses, ponies, foals, and donkeys. Our prices are competitive and offer the same degree of protection as you would receive from your local vet.
Caring for horses involves regular worming to ensure their health and well-being. Horses are naturally exposed to various types of worms and parasites, including roundworms, tapeworms, and bots. Regular worming is crucial to kill and remove these parasites, preventing them from causing harm to your horse. Our range of worming products is designed to meet the needs of all horses, regardless of age or size.
You can check out our entry at the Veterinary Medical Directorate here, and rest assured that Emma Betts, our approved SQP at the centre, oversees all our equine care products. Emma’s extensive experience and qualifications in animal care make her a trusted advisor when it comes to caring for horses.
If you’re unsure which wormer to choose or whether your horse needs worming at all, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We have a wealth of information to help you make the best decision for your horse’s health.

Additional Tips for Caring for Horses
Nutrition
Proper nutrition is a key component of caring for horses. Ensure your horse has a balanced diet that includes the right mix of forage, grains, and supplements. Regularly consult with a veterinarian or equine nutritionist to tailor a diet that meets your horse’s specific needs.
Regular Vet Check-Ups
Just like any other pet, horses require regular veterinary check-ups to monitor their health and catch any issues early. Annual health checks should include dental exams, vaccinations, and general health assessments.
Proper Shelter
Providing adequate shelter is another important aspect of caring for horses. Ensure your horse has access to a dry, comfortable, and safe environment, particularly during harsh weather conditions.
Exercise
Regular exercise is essential for maintaining your horse’s physical and mental health. Whether through riding, lunging, or pasture turnout, ensure your horse gets enough activity to stay fit and happy.
Hoof Care
Regular hoof care is crucial in caring for horses. Schedule routine visits with a qualified farrier to maintain healthy hooves and prevent lameness.
At A-Z Animal Care, we are committed to supporting you in every aspect of caring for horses. While we focus on providing the best products and advice for your horse’s health, we are always here to answer your questions and provide guidance on proper horse care.
