Horse in trees

Cushing’s disease, also known as PPID (pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction), is a progressive disorder that begins with the dysfunction of the pituitary gland. This gland, at the base of the brain, sends out a number of hormones, and a horse with Cushing’s disease starts to send out more hormones causing a number of symptoms.

In our latest blog post Standlee Nutritional Experts Dr. Tania Cubitt and Dr. Stephen Duren cover the causes, symptoms and diagnosis of Cushing’s disease. They also provide tips for proper feeding and disease management. Have trouble medicating your horse? Read more about the solution that has equine veterinarians and horse owners excited!
