I love that Evention addresses practical horse care topics, in addition to answering pressing eventing questions from fans. The most recent episode of of Evention addresses what to put in an equine first aid kit. Be sure to watch the entire episode to see the Schramm Equestrian crew dancing Gangnam style in the barn aisle. Watching this week’s episode is a great opportunity to go through your first aid kit to make sure you have all of the items recommended in this episode, such as these:
Epsom Salts — Not just for abscesses; also helpful for stone bruises
Saline Solution — Useful to flush out a weeping eye
Body Powder — Very helpful after a bath to avoid rain rot
Aloe Vera — Great for cuts on the face
Bag Balm — Perfect for blanket rubs
Evention Tip of the Day: Don’t forget to stock a first aid kit for your trailer!
