In today’s arena, an equine athlete needs every advantage you can provide.  FACT:  Often the mouth is overlooked.

Indications that your horse needs a dental exam:

1.   Shaking/tilting head

2.   Dropping feed

3.   Weight loss

4.   Head shyness

5.   Behavior problems (these may include - reluctance to bend and flex properly, refusal to accept  certain bits, alley sourness, ducking off at a barrel, hesitant to back up, shaking head, agitation when asked to perform)

Routine dental care is just as important as vaccinations, de-worming, etc.   For your Athlete, a performance float is a minimal investment that can add productive years to your horse's life.
