BEVApod Focus - Managing equids of unknown ownership

In this episode, Lucy sits down with Imogen Burrows, BEVA's current President, to discuss a brand-new resource designed for those all-too-familiar out-of-hours dilemmas: urgent cases involving equids of unknown ownership.

 

Imogen talks through why she created this one-stop shop toolkit, developed with support from the RSPCA and the Police, to support vets who find themselves in situations where the owner can't be traced and quick decisions are needed.

 

Together, they explore:

• why these cases can be so challenging, especially for vets who haven't encountered them before
• What's inside the toolkit and how it can help you
• How the RSPCA and Police contributed to its development
• Real-world scenarios where the resources can be invaluable
