Spring is here everyone! What does that mean? It means everyone is starting to ride and mares are foaling out. It means that EVERYONE wants to get horses adjusted like yesterday. And it means my schedule is ridiculously full for the next few months. Please do not wait to schedule your animal until it becomes an emergency. My only open day in March is March 18 and that’s because someone just rescheduled a barn. Below are days with availability and location:

March 11: Lemoore/Hanford/Riverdale 2-3 horses
March 18: open (minimum number of animals needed to book the day)
March 25: Three Rivers 4 horses
March 30: Groveland 4 horses

Can I ask the biggest favor of you all?
California legislators are meeting on March 10 to discuss animal chiropractic and its scope. As it stands now, California animal chiropractors need to be under DIRECT VETERINARY SUPERVISION in order to treat ALL animals! It does not matter that I went to school and certification courses. It doesn’t matter that I stay certified by completing continuing education. It doesn’t matter that I hold MY OWN MALPRACTICE to be able to do this!

What does this mean? It means for every animal I see, I LEGALLY have to work with a veterinarian present. How would you feel if your chiropractor for yourself had to work at a medical office with an MD watching their every move? Wouldn’t that make your access to both the MD and DC very difficult? And very expensive?!

Well, that’s what California is making DCs do in order to treat animals. The veterinary field is narrowing each day. Vets are burnt out and quitting because they are overworked and underpaid. Su***de rates with vets are some of the worst across all professions. And California wants to add more to their plate and spread them even thinner with supervising animal chiropractors! Your access as an animal owner is so limited!

In several states, like Colorado, certified animal chiropractors do not need direct supervision or a referral from a veterinarian to gain access to animal chiropractic. It’s simple, you just call them up for an appointment! I haven’t look at the stats, but I bet there is less vet burnout there.

What are certified animal chiropractors doing? We are trying to help everyone! We are raising money to make legislative changes, attending legislative events, and garnering as much support as possible. We want to take the burden off of the veterinarians and help with musculoskeletal issues without a vet (with no chiropractic training) watching our every move and stealing away their time from more emergent issues. No animal chiropractor wants to diagnose your animal! And we certainly don’t want you to have to jump through hoops to have your animal seen for a simple 15-20 minute appointment!

What can you do? Please please write a brief statement on how chiropractic has helped your animal! It doesn’t have to even be what I personally have done (I really need no credit here). It doesn’t have to be more than a paragraph. Did you have to go through anything to have them seen? Tell us about your struggles to gain access. This shouldn’t take you more than a few minutes. And YOU could change animal chiropractic for good!

Please send a brief statement to my email dr.amy.winchester@gmail.com before March 10. We need your help! Your animals need your help!
Share this and let’s make it go viral! Be the Change!

Pricing Changes for 2026

In order to keep our prices fair for all, barn call fees will now be implemented to everyone outside of a 30 minutes of Clovis. These fees will be split amongst the owners. This means that the more animals we see at each location, the cheaper the barn call fee. If you are unable to trailer to the main location in the area, an additional fee will be incurred.

We have seen an increase of owners that cannot be present for their animal’s appointment. Therefore, we are implementing a handling fee of $5 if the owner is unable to catch and handle their animal.

An increase in pricing for people of $10 for all appointments will also take effect.

But good news: Cash discounts are still in effect for animals!

As always, please contact us via text or call with any scheduling or questions at (559)250-5116

Happy Holidays everyone! Sport and Spur is on vacation until the new year! We will not have access to our schedule or notes again until this next week, so please be patient when no one returns your calls/texts/emails for a few days. We will be out of town for most of the rest of the year as well and back the first full week of January!

Equine herpesviruses are very common DNA viruses in horse populations worldwide. The two most significant are EHV-1, which causes respiratory disease, abortion, and neurologic disease; and EHV-4, which primarily causes respiratory disease and only occasionally causes abortion or neurologic disease.....

11/19/2025

With the outbreak of EHV-1, we would like everyone to know we are taking precautions. Please let us know if your horse is experiencing symptoms or if there is a possibility of exposure. We have no problem rescheduling! Let’s stop the spread! Check temps and quarantine if you suspect your equine has been exposed. And please please let us know if you want to reschedule!

How do I put into words what this weekend meant? Being around people with the same passion really stokes the fire and ups your game! The animal chiropractic community is so small and getting 55 of us from around the world in one place was amazing! Lectures and skills labs reminded me just how much animal chiropractors can do for the horse! Learning from the famous Dr Jay of “Life, Adjusted” teaches you to slow down and listen to your intuition. Dr Meg Bacon gave me some great tools for analyzing the horse. But the icing on the cake was learning hyoid and TMJ adjustments from world renowned Dr Andy Petric of the Spanish Riding Academy in Vienna! I cannot wait to integrate all I’ve learned! I’m both humbled by the amazing talent out there and confident in my skills!
