Why this App:
The idea for this app came after a weekend when not one but two young 4-H members each separately realized something was wrong with their individual horses.  Neither of them had the information or vocabulary to clearly express the severity of the problem to their different veterinarians’ office staff.  In both cases their horses died, because the vet did not come in time to save either horse.
In both cases the horses could have lived had their young owners had the proper tools to realize they were facing an emergency and understand the importance of expressing the correct information to their veterinarians.
You May Be Saving Your Horse’s Life by taking your ailing horse’s vital signs.  With this information your veterinarian will know whether you are facing an emergency and determine if they are coming right away, or the next day.  The heart rate is a linchpin to your horse’s health.  Stoic animals sometimes hide their symptoms. Knowing your horse’s normal heart rate as well as how to take his current heart rate could save his life.  Through the First Aid for Horses app, you now can have this information at your fingertips.
