What can horses be allergic to?

Just like us, your pets can be allergic to a whole host of things including:

  • Pollens: grasses, trees and wildflowers/weeds
  • Biting insects: Midges are the cause of the dreaded sweet itch
  • Food: Horses can become sensitive to many grains and commercial food additives
  • Environmental factors: Mites, insects, yeasts and fungi
  • Insect stings: Bees, ants and mosquitos.

Horses will often show their allergies through respiratory and skin irritation or unexplained bouts of laminitis.

Why Choose us?

Our state-of-the-art testing equipment is the only one of its kind in Europe, offering fast and highly accurate results.  

We offer allergy testing for horses that analyses a greater number of UK-relevant pollen species and in the case of horses, more pollen allergens compared to the leading competitor.

We genuinely care about the animal whose blood we have in our hands. It’s why we don’t believe in masking the symptoms – we help you find the root cause using our blood allergy test for horses.

 Unlike traditional treatments, like immunotherapy, which can require lifelong injections and are ineffective against food allergies, our equine allergy test will give you clear answers on what’s causing your pet’s allergies, empowering you to make informed decisions without relying on unnecessary treatments.

Dragon Lab’s testing service provides results within 1 week, which is one of the fastest turn around times of allergy testing labs in UK. Helping you get those important results as soon as possible. You will be sent a detailed report, along with an explanation of the results.  Our horse allergy blood test service not only provides you with the numbers. But also invaluable knowledge and advice of our extensive experience.
