HSVG was created by Doug Thal DVM DABVP, a lifelong horseman & veterinarian that has practiced exclusively equine veterinary medicine for over 20 years & is board certified in equine practice.

HSVG provides helpful information about equine health from the moment you notice a problem with your horse - My Observation.  It contains practical advice, suggested skills, and questions to discuss with your vet.

HSVG is of value in an emergency and non-emergency, and it helps you distinguish between the two. HSVG also contains dozens of high quality instructional videos, and other media designed to enable you to become an active participant in ensuring your horse’s good health.

However, HSVG is not structured as a simple decision tree that takes you down a singular path based on your input. It is not a substitute for your local equine veterinarian. It does not, and cannot, anticipate and address all of the subtle variations and unique circumstances associated with your horse’s health. That is your veterinarian's job.

- Make better decisions about your horse’s health.
- Increase the quality of communication between you and your vet.
- Follow a logical thought process for addressing any equine heath care problem.
- Utilize a quality alternative to Dr. Google.

Ok – so what is Horse Side Vet Guide exactly?

HSVG is a custom-built relational database of equine health information that contains concise information about common problems to rare diseases. Records are contained in 1 of 9 categories:

- My Observations
- Vet Diagnostics
- Vet Diagnoses
- Vet Treatments
- My Skills
- My Supplies
- Terms & Topics
- Media
- Outside Resources

These records are extensively interlinked, providing a uniquely contextualized approach to any equine health issue.

We continuously add and update the records in HSVG. We have placed great emphasis on completing the MY OBSERVATIONS records first. You can find "full access" records with a keyword search, in the alphabetical browse lists, and hyperlinked inside other records. Incomplete (or "partial access") records are listed inside full access records, with no hyperlink. Many other records are hidden from view, and will be available later. After we complete a partial or hidden record we change it to "full access" and it becomes immediately available to you after the app has been synchronized to your mobile device.

Must for horse owners
Horse Called Man

Wonderful app. Gives lots of helpful information and recommendations. Just used to aid me when my horse choked. Tell you what information (and how to get the info) you should have when you call the vet. And gives you additional info you can try if the first treatment doesn’t work. Includes great illustrations and ‘how to’ videos .


Used to be my number one app. But videos have stopped working

I have recommended this to every horse owner i know. But lately, the videos have stopped working. When you click on them, it kicks you out of the app. How do you Learn if you are ejected out of the app? And the app itself has only been updated 2 years ago. It needs an update.


Reliably correct, always available.

This is a great app! They could honestly charge double or more what they are charging and it would still be well worth it. TONS of information! One awesome thing is that you download all the info to your phone, so you are not reliant on an internet connection when you need to use it.


A must for every horse owner
Englslady

This is without a doubt the best equestrian app that is on the market. Not only does the app have hundreds of explanations for diagnoses, treatments etc but it also has educational videos and quizzes. Brilliant!


Best Veterinary app EVER!

I love this app! Quick reference guides, detailed pictures, excellent explanations. Even an area for common further education. I love that I can store my vet contacts in the app so that ANYONE can call the vet if I have my hands full. Best purchase I have made in a long time. Thank you!

Great app. Easy to navigate and all the relevant information. Needed this one! Should get it up and running on other platforms!


Perfect Guide for Info!
Hockoky

This app is perfect for me and my horses. I thought I knew a lot, but there are so many horse owner skills that I could learn or improve on. I can't believe how much information is packed into this thing! When will it be available in Spanish? I would love to share it with my family!!
