Pleasure Horses

One of the greatest pleasures in life is spending quality time with your horse on an adventurous ride . Pleasure horses work just as hard as a competition horse in many instances – walking, trotting, cantering, or galloping on uneven ground and unpredictable surfaces can challenge their muscles, tendons, and joints in different ways. The veterinarians at Montesano & Tallarico are experts at caring for your equine partner, whether you’re riding out locally, or hitting the trails around the country.

• General health evaluation
• Nutrition counseling for top conditioning
• Injury prevention advice

• Lameness evaluations and recommendations
• Oral hygiene and floating
• Digital radiography
• Ultrasound diagnosis
• Trimming and shoeing sessions with you and your farrier, accompanied with digital xrays
• Hoof care and counseling with you and your farrier
• Emergency care 24/7/365
