is also beneficial in those that do not show signs of laminitis. 
If the horse already presents with signs of laminitis this will require appropriate control depending on the degree. This often means remedial shoeing or trimming. An appropriate diet is also important with limited or no access to pasture and careful stable management with clean thick bedding. Additionally it is a good idea to have these horses and ponies with PPID checked for EMS. This can produce some similar signs such as laminitis and weight gain and unchecked EMS can prevent good control of laminitis in equines with PPID.

What does PPID mean for my horse?
Horses and ponies with uncomplicated PPID generally have a good prognosis. With appropriate treatment and management signs should improve. Repeat ACTH testing after starting therapy should show a reduction in blood concentration.

Often veterinary care isnt sought until signs are severe or laminitis has developed. These are often the more difficult cases to manage.

Its important to be in tune with your older horse and recognise that although he might be showing some changes because of his age it might be that PPID is behind them. If you have any doubts then discuss with your vet at his next scheduled checkup or book him for peace of mind.
