Our certified Animal Science instructors along with Faculty Coordinators Dr. Jenifer Nadeu and Dr. Amy Safran met with Dr. Julia Wilkinson from Tufts Veterinary Field Service to learn about equine aging and dentistry in a hands on science lab. The group of 12 certified animal science instructors were able to tour the horse barns and observe Dr. Wilkinson floating a horse’s teeth. This routine procedure involves filing a horse’s teeth to make the chewing surfaces relatively flat or smooth as a part of overall equine health.
