Thrums Equine News – Summer 2026

The first edition of our new quarterly equine newsletter is here. Here’s a quick look at what’s inside:

  • Equine flu update – positive cases in our area and neighbouring counties, plus why some clients are bringing their flu boosters forward for the competition season
  • A warm welcome to Caitlin Nicholson, the newest vet to join the equine team
  • Spring client meeting round-up – our case-based session on trimming feet and laminitis, held with local farriers and an equine internal medicine specialist
  • Your summer Worm Egg Count reminder – why it matters and how to collect a kit from our Kirriemuir or Blairgowrie branches
  • Our new equine dental scope – how this new camera helps us spot, treat and monitor problems, with real photos of teeth, gums and the conditions we’re finding
  • Area days for July, August and September – routine equine visits across Angus and East Perthshire, and how to book
