Symposium Topics

10AM to 12Noon Rational Approaches to Parasite Control

Craig Reinemeyer, DVM, PhD President, East Tennessee Clinical Research.

Dr. Craig Reinemeyer is a veterinarian and a PhD in veterinary parasitology. His talk will change the way you think about parasite control. Current popular deworming practices are no longer effective because parasites have adapted to them. Drug resistance is a looming threat to the deworming drugs we now have. Dr. Reinemeyer will show you how to deworm your herd of horses in a way that is effective and rational.



12 Noon to 1PM Lunch

1PM to 2PM Nutritional Management of Developmental Orthopedic Disease

Joe Pagan, PhD President, Kentucky Equine Research

Dr. Joe Pagan is a PhD in equine nutrition and President of Kentucky Equine Research. Finding ways to reduce the incidence of Developmental Orthopedic Disease (DOD) has long been a focus of Dr. Pagan’s work. Skeletal problems are the leading cause of wastage in equine athletes. Dr. Pagan will discuss feeding management practices that will reduce the incidence of DOD. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to learn from this internationally know nutritionist.



2PM to 3PM Recognizing Nutritional Deficiencies

Kathleen Crandell, PhD Nutritionist, Kentucky Equine Research

Nutritional deficiencies can cause symptoms that are not commonly recognized.

Dr. Crandell will discuss how to recognize some common nutritional deficiencies.
