āœ” Helps manage joint inflammation and pain
āœ” Supports performance and mobility
āœ” Same-day preparation and treatment

Pro-Stride may be a great option for **performance horses, horses with joint inflammation, or those showing early signs of arthritis**.

🐓 **New Technology to Better Serve You & Your Horse** 🐓

We’re excited to share that during your horse’s visit, Dr. Becky may use an **AI medical scribe** to assist with medical record keeping.

✨ **What does this mean for you?**
• The scribe helps accurately capture exam findings and treatments in real time
• Dr. Becky can stay more focused on your horse—not on typing
• Medical records are completed more efficiently and thoroughly

šŸ“„ **After Your Visit**
Following the appointment, you’ll receive a **clear, easy-to-read information sheet by email** summarizing:
• Exam findings
• Diagnoses
• Treatments performed
• Care instructions and recommendations

šŸ”’ **Your Privacy Matters**
All information is handled securely and confidentially. The AI tool is used strictly to assist with documentation and client communication.

Our goal is to improve communication, accuracy, and your overall experience while providing the highest level of care for your horse. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Thank you for trusting us with your equine partner šŸ’™šŸŽ

If the professional caring for your horse’s teeth isn't performing an exam of this caliber you have to wonder…..what might they be missing in there?
At Commonwealth Equine, we firmly believe that every horse deserves a complete, annual dental exam with standing sedation and use of a headlamp and mirror.
We offer full oral examinations and dental care for our patients - we also work closely with boarded veterinary dental specialists to ensure the very best for your equine friend!
Horses are prey animals and will often hide chronic pain - just because they are still eating doesn't mean there are no issues in their mouth.
Help us help your horse!
