One of the best things about being a young veterinarian is the creative energy to have some fun! Thank you Drs. Hope Pavsek and Kristen Barrett for these awesome informational boards on our services! And welcome to the team Dr. Kristen!

Even though it’s getting towards the end of summer, it’s never too late to vaccinate! Every year we get asked, should I vaccinate my horse for West Nile virus? The answer is YES! We see cases every year and this year we have especially seen some awful cases in unvaccinated horses. Horses seem to always be looking for a reason to get hurt or sick, so preventative medicine can go a long way!

Being a large animal vet isn’t easy and the first year is by far the hardest! Congratulations Dr. Hope Pavsek for conquering your first year of practice! We are so fortunate to have you at Horsefly Creek Vet!

We had beautiful weather and a super fun weekend at the Run at the Rose at the Montrose Events Center! We met some new people and got to see some familiar faces from the past few years and as always worked on some amazing horses! Thanks to Taylor Miniat for putting this event on! We always have so much fun sponsoring this event!

We have not heard of any cases in our area. Just be aware.

FDA, in cooperation with state departments of agriculture in CO, LA, NM, and TX, is investigating cases of illness and death in horses.

For those of you not aware of the current shortage of equine and food animals veterinarians, I think this article will help out it into perspective!

The supply of equine veterinarians is diminishing rapidly. How can horse owners help?

Well it’s only taken us a year and a half but we finally got a sign put up! It’s kind of becoming a running joke almost akin to “Where’s Waldo”! But alas here it is and most of you know where to find us at this point and there’s a little more of a marker to look for than the address that’s spray painted on the post at the entry way! We’ve had an amazing year at Horsefly Creek Vet! This winter we added a 3.5 meter endoscope to the practice that allows us to not only view upper airways of horses but also stomachs! So now there no guessing as to if a horse has ulcers or not! We have also added Pro-stride to our portfolio of joint health products. We hope all of you are enjoying your summer!
