Determining the age of horses can
now for the first time be standardized
since the introduction of a new teeth
and aging chart by the American As­
sociation of Equine Practitioners and
Fort Dodge Laboratories.
In 1963 the American Association of
Equine Practitioners recognized that
the increasing value and number of
horses in the United States placed a
critical burden on racing associations
and insurance companies for a stand­
ardized an accurate method for deter­
mining the age of horses. A committee
of experts was appointed to gather ma­
terial for such a guide. Fort Dodge
Laboratories of Fort Dodge Iowa
was assigned the responsibility of
production.
This book by means of detailed
charts and descriptions, outlines the
age of a horse from birth to 20 years.
The text is based on the premise that
teeth provide the most precise tool
available for the determination of the
age of the horse. Teeth appear, develop,
wear, change form and are shed with
a regularity that veterinarians have
learned to recognize with a high degree
of accuracy. These characteristics have
all been included in this booklet so that
the horseman as well as the veterin­
arian will be able to easily determine
the age of any horse by comparison
with this standardized reference.
Interested parties may receive a copy
of this guide by sending a $2.00 check
or money order to General Wayne Kcs-
ter, executive-secretary of the Ameri­
can Association of Equine Practition­
ers, 14 Hillcrest Circle, Route 3,
Golden, Colorado.
