Equine Colic is one of the scariest things for horse people and their horses. Your horse can go from perfectly fine one minute to fighting for their life just a little while later. A lot of times colic can be resolved from care at home by you and your veterinarian. Sometimes, horses require surgery. In this video a veterinarian shows us how colic surgery is done. Warning, the video is graphic.
Whether people choose to have colic surgery performed on their horse or not is a completely personal decision. We just hope that if you are ever faced with having to make that choice, this video gives you a little better understanding of the process. If you liked this video, Please Share it on Facebook!

is a whip stitch the type of stitch used in most colic surgeries? and would it be rude to ask the vet to use individual stitches?
