How To Make Up A First Aid Kit?
I don’t have my own horse yet, but was wondering what would I need to buy for a first aid kit if I were to get one.
I’m also wondering on common diseases etc that i could know about.
Any help gladly appreciated

stethoscope, rectal thermometer, betadine, corona, gauze, human neopsporin, polo wrap, scissors, fly spray, flashlight, medical tape…that’s all i can think of off the top of my head.
some people will tell you bute, but i only use it if my vet recommends it. in my opinion, all it does is mask the symptoms. this can lead to some issues when your vet is trying to determine what is wrong with your horse, and your horse could become more injured if they’re using their hurt body part.
some common medical issues:
colic
cushings
laminitis
epm
potomac horse fever
founder
flu
rabies

plenty of poultices, epsom salt, industrial strength duct tape, cleaning supplies, and bandage material! A large burlap sack is included for your horse to stand on while cleaning and bandaging the hoof
(can you pick me for best answer)
