The Association is delighted to announce an upcoming webinar, which is brought to you by Boehringer Ingelheim’s Talk About Laminitis Team.

Talk About Laminitis has been working since 2012 to raise awareness of the link between laminitis and hormonal disease.

Boehringer Ingelheim are providing complimentary ACTH tests to horse owners who suspect their horse may have Equine Cushing’s disease. You can simply generate a voucher code by clicking on the Free Test button on this page https://talkaboutlaminitis.ie/free-laminitis-tests and book a visit from your vet.

*free basal ACTH test laboratory fees only. Visit, blood sampling and interpretation fees may be applied by your veterinary practice.

We have two esteemed professionals, Eimear McHale, Veterinary Surgeon & Sorcha O’Connor MVB, Equine Nutritionist from Connolly’s RED MILLS & Veterinary Surgeon.

This webinar will explore laminitis — a serious condition affecting horse health and mobility. The session will cover how to recognize both early and advanced signs, common causes, and practical ways to reduce the risk of laminitis. It will also explain the connection between Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS), PPID/Cushing’s disease, and insulin regulation, helping horse owners better understand prevention and management strategies. We will also be exploring the nutritional side of things and how the correct nutrition can help.
