Breeding
At Swanspool Veterinary Clinic, we pride ourselves on our expertise
in mare and foal care and breeding services.
Our skilled veterinarians specialize in scanning mares and ensuring successful breeding outcomes.
Getting your mare into foal:
With us, you can have peace of mind knowing that our fixed fees cover all routine costs associated with getting your mare into foal. We offer a range of stud packages including natural, chilled and frozen semen insemination. Our packages cover all essential aspects such as callouts, examinations, ovulation injections and two pregnancy scans. Our services are conducted conveniently at your premises, ensuring your mare's comfort and reducing stress.
Stallion Licensing Services:
We also provide stallion licensing services to guarantee your stallion's health and readiness for the upcoming breeding season. Our comprehensive examination includes assessing the sheath, penis, scrotum, and testicles. Depending on temperament, sedation might be necessary. We conduct essential blood tests for Equine Viral Arteritis (EVA), Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA), and Contagious Equine Metritis (CEM) to ensure the stallion's health and prevent the spread of diseases.
Foaling Assistance:
While most foalings progress smoothly, our experienced vets are available 24/7 to assist in challenging situations. We highly recommend a post-foaling check-up to ensure the foal's health. This examination includes a thorough health check and optional IGG blood tests to confirm successful passive transfer (good uptake of colostrum).
