Is your horse in pain? 🐴 It’s not always obvious!

Join us for our Horse Owner Education Webinar with Drs. Kim Allshouse and Michael St. Blanc to learn how to spot the subtle signs of pain, tell the difference between pain and behavior problems, and catch issues early before they become bigger concerns. 🩺

The webinar will be recorded and registrants will receive a link to the recording, so be sure to sign up even if you can’t attend the live event. ✅

Drop the word LISTEN in the comments and we’ll send the registration link straight to your DMs. 📩

We would like to give our client, Marcia Hoffer, a huge congratulations on achieving her century ride with her awesome Quarter Horse gelding, Billy! 🎉 💯 To commemorate this honor, we have made a donation to the dressage foundation to support the century club. The century club recognizes dressage riders and horses whose combined ages total 100 years or more. It is a great program and a big milestone to achieve! So proud of Marcia and Billy, help us congratulate them! 🌟

Please plan ahead, our office will be closing at 10am on Thursday, July 23rd for a meeting. Our answering service will be taking calls for us. All non-urgent calls will be returned on Friday. We will have one of our vets on call for any emergencies as always! 🚨🐴

Your equine veterinarian shows up in the pouring rain, in the freezing cold, on the worst days — and the best ones, too. Now's your chance to say thank you, publicly!

Starting July 1, share a video (up to 1 min) telling us how your equine veterinarian goes above and beyond. DM it to us on Facebook or Instagram by July 31.

✅ Each horse owner who submits a video will receive a digital $10 Starbucks gift card. There is no limit to the number of videos you can submit, but only one gift card will be allowed per person.

�🏆 The veterinarian featured in the grand prize-winning video will be honored in person during the AAEP’s 2026 Annual Convention, Dec. 7-11 in Las Vegas, NV. �

🎬 In addition to the top three placed videos, winners will also be selected in three special recognition categories:
* Most Creative Video
* Longest Relationship with a Veterinarian
* Best Junior Submission

All submissions must include the owner's full name and the veterinarian's name, and focus on partnership, dedication, and care beyond the expected. The nominated practitioner must be an AAEP member to be eligible to win the grand prize.

Tag your vet, get creative, and help us celebrate the people who show up for horses — and the humans who love them.

Special thanks to AAEP Educational Partner Zoetis for sponsoring this initiative and helping us celebrate the extraordinary bond between horse owners and their equine veterinarian!

🎉 Congratulations to Our Veterinary Interns! 🎉

Join us in celebrating an incredible milestone as our veterinary interns officially completed their internship program and transition into their new roles as Associate Veterinarians with our practice!

Over the past year, they have demonstrated exceptional dedication, compassion, resilience, and a commitment to providing outstanding care for our patients and clients. Their growth as clinicians and team members has been inspiring to watch, and we couldn’t be more proud of their accomplishments.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Abbie Flynn and Dr. Sean MacPherson on this exciting achievement. We are thrilled that they will continue their careers with us and look forward to the expertise and care they will bring to our patients!

Congratulations, Doctors! Your hard work has paid off, and we are honored to have you as part of the Ocean State Equine Team! 🐴🩺💙
