A healthy horse at rest takes 10 to 14 breaths per minute, inhaling upward of 60 liters of air in that time. But a horse diagnosed with asthma, just like his human counterparts, coughs, wheezes, and struggles to breathe. Airway inflammation and mucous accumulation associated with this condition make efficient performance nearly impossible for these horses.
