Why identifying and monitoring your horses' health is crucial 

Correctly identifying your horses and keeping track of their health are essential daily tasks for any caretaker or rider. Body temperature is one of the most reliable indicators for:

• Detecting infections early,

• Preventing heat stress,

• Anticipating potential health issues.

Traditionally, identification and temperature checks are separate tasks and can be stressful for both the horse and the caretaker. Groomy-compatible microchip readers now allow you to combine instant identification and contactless temperature measurement in a single, stress-free step, making daily health monitoring simpler and safer.

Identification and Temperature in One Step

These compact and durable readers offer dual functionality:

• Instant Identification: They read your horse’s microchip for fast and official identification.

• Contactless Temperature Measurement: Compatible with next-generation chips (Thermochip®), they measure body temperature at the same time, without stress or invasive handling.

 

One single action provides two vital pieces of information for your horses’ daily health monitoring.

Enhanced safety and wellbeing for your horses

Say goodbye to stressful and sometimes risky rectal thermometers. Contactless chip readers make daily health checks safer, faster, and more comfortable for both you and your horse. They offer:

 

• Fast and secure daily monitoring,

• Non-invasive temperature measurement, fully respectful of your horse’s well-being,

• The ability to take temperatures anywhere – in the stable, at competitions, or during transport.

Seamless integration with Groomy

Compatibility with Groomy turns every reading into reliable digital data:

1. Scan your horse.

2. The reader transmits the identification and temperature via Bluetooth.

3. The horse’s record opens automatically, and the data is recorded, dated, and timestamped.

 

Every measurement becomes part of a usable health history, ideal for breeders, veterinarians, and riders who want to proactively monitor their horses’ health.
