Part 2 of a 5-part podcast series, where our OAHN Equine Network veterinarians answer top equine professionals' questions about equine strangles. We are joined by Ontario equine veterinarian Dr. Chris Grossenbacher, who answers the following questions: "Is strangles hard to clear from a farm once an infection has been established? "There seems to be a lot of difference in opinion on whether to treat strangles of let it run its course; what's the best thing to do? i.e. Should we be treating with penicillin at the first onset of a fever?" "What is bastard strangles? Are there different risks or specific procedures and protocols to follow when dealing with bastard strangles?"
