infection when they travel to other properties/shows. A vaccination for Strangles is available. It will not prevent the disease in all cases, but will reduce the severity and duration of clinical signs. Three vaccinations are required initially two weeks apart, followed by annual boosters. In high risk cases, 6 monthly boosters may be advisable. Strangles is a notifiable disease in Victoria and must be reported to the District Veterinary/Animal Health Officer within 7 days. Properties are not placed under quarantine, but assisted with biosecurity measures to prevent further spread. NEWSLETTERS ONLINE

Strangles is a contagious bacterial disease of horses, ponies and donkeys. It is caused by Streptococcus equi, a bacterium that can be transmitted by direct contact (ie sniffing) with infected horses or subclinical shedders, or indirect spread via people, clothing, buckets, fences or equipment. Careless horse handlers can contribute significantly to the spread of the bacteria to other horses. Outbreaks can follow the introduction of new horses to a property, or the mixing of groups of horses. It tends to affect younger animals. The incubation period of Strangles is 1-3 weeks. Clinical signs can include loss of appetite, discharge of yellow pus from the nose, enlarged lymph nodes/glands of the head and neck, coughing, difficulty swallowing, and a high temperature. Clinical signs can last for days, weeks, and occasionally months. Affected horses can be treated with antibiotics and supportive care. Diagnosis is confirmed with a nasal cavity swab. Infected horses should be isolated from other horses for 6-8 weeks. Some horses can become subclinical carriers (often hiding the bacteria in their guttural pouches) for years without showing clinical signs. These horses can act as a source of
