How much should I feed my horse? This is a very common question with our clients at Sapulpa Veterinary Hospital. To properly address this question, there are a few things that the doctor needs to know. First, what type of feed you are currently feeding (pellets, sweet grain, oats or a complete feed like senior). Second, what volume in pounds are you feeding. With this information he can determine whether to increase or decrease the volume being fed to your horse. Now, this brings up a little confusion.

Most people measure their feed with gallon coffee cans. This is fine if you know how many pounds of your kind of feed that it holds (most people don’t).To help eliminate this problem, the staff of Sapulpa Veterinary Hospital is offering a NO CHARGE SERVICE. We invite you to come by the hospital and bring some of your feed, we

will weigh it for you! While you’re here weighing your feed, you can talk to the doctor about how much you should be feeding your horse and any other concerns you might have. You will then know how many pounds per day your horse is receiving. And just for dropping by you will receive a FREE FEED SCOOP! |

This residency is a three year position during which Dr. Grady will be responsible for the care of Equine internal medicine cases admitted to the KSU veterinary hospital, clinical and classroom teaching of veterinary students and completion of a research project. During this program he will gain valuable knowledge and experience of advanced diagnostic and treatment techniques under the mentoring | of some of the most respected researchers and clinicians in the world. At the completion of the three years, Dr. Grady will be eligible for board certification by the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine and a Masters of Science degree from KSU.
