Thoroughbred stud farms in Kildare, Wicklow and surrounding areas can avail of our breeding stock management service. Should you wish to have your breeding stock managed by us on one of the boarding farms that we service, then please get in touch with us to discuss a boarding farm best suited to your needs.

Sub-Fertile Mare Management
We offer a specialised service aimed at getting tricky mares in foal. We conduct thorough examinations and in-depth work ups aimed at diagnosing problems which may have prevented your mare from going in foal or carrying a pregnancy to term in previous years. We offer treatments and solutions aimed at improving fertility and ultimately getting you results.
Foal Care and Young Stock Management
Our vets are experts in foal care and young stock management. We recommend an initial examination in the first 24 hours of birth to assess IGG levels and to perform a full clinical examination so as to address any potential problems as early as possible. Our expertise in young stock extends to foal and yearling sales prep support.
Management of High-Risk Pregnancies
We perform examinations and manage high-risk pregnancies. If your mare has a history of previous placentitis or abortion, we offer a service whereby we prevent or monitor and manage issues associated with high-risk pregnancies so as to help your mare give birth to a healthy foal at full term.
Reproduction Referral Services
We offer a referral service which focuses on diagnosing and addressing more complex reproductive issues, typically in barren or sub fertile mares. We can perform these in depth work ups at your yard.
