🎅 🎄 HOLIDAY FUNDRAISER 2026 🎄 🎅

Mickey is excited to announce the first of 2 very special holiday fundraisers that the North Winds Vet crew are hosting this year!

All proceeds from both of these fundraisers will go entirely to our friends at the Scranton School for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children.

This school holds a special place in all our hearts. Whether it’s helping our Barnyard Friends with their 4-H and farm animals or judging their annual sunflower 🌻 competition, these kids never fail to put smiles on our faces.

Let’s return the favor and help them raise money for something very exciting - a facility service dog 🐶! We can’t think of kids more deserving than these ones!

With help from local artist Epona's Paintbrush and local business Wall Designs, we were able to come up with a fun Christmas design that is available on sweatshirts and shirts. Please consider placing an order and supporting this local program!

*All orders must be placed by November 1 and will be sent to our office as a bulk delivery before the holidays.

Thank you for your support!!

Online ordering for NorthWinds Holiday Fundraiser ends on Sun, Nov 1, 2026 (11:59 PM EST)

The first day of spring is less than a month away! 🌸
Which means…it's time to schedule your equine companion to receive their spring vaccinations!

If you are wondering what vaccinations your equine friend should receive, the answer is — There are no “one size fits all” vaccine recommendations. A veterinarian who knows your animal and your management system is your best resource to recommend what vaccines your equine should receive and with what frequency!

While vaccination does not prevent disease in all circumstances, a good immunization protocol minimizes the risk of infection and remains an essential component of responsible ownership. A vaccination appointment is also the perfect opportunity for a yearly check-up of your equine friend and a great way to catch any health concerns early.

If you have yet to contact your veterinarian about scheduling vaccinations, we encourage you to do it soon!
