We are seeing a sudden rise in laminitis cases! Especially those horses with underlying metabolic diseases, such as PPID (equine Cushing's) or insulin resistance. Due to the spiking sugar that will only continue into the Fall, we highly recommend restricting their access to pasture entirely, or using a muzzle (depending on what your veterinarian recommendations for your individual horse).

Have you thanked your farrier lately? This week is National Farriers Week, so let's show them some love! These talented men and women work so incredibly hard to keep your horse comfortable and they deserve every little bit of gratitude we can give.

Thank you to all of our great farriers - everyone at Country View Equine Clinic appreciates your dedication to the horses in our community. As vets, we know we often ask for a lot of favors on behalf of our patients and we hope you know how much it means to us when you jump in on a case that you are by no means obligated to.

Everyone, tell your farrier how much you appreciate them, and take some time to ask about and learn the "little things" that you can do to make a big difference in their day.

Happy National Farriers Week!

Today, we have a very special shout out to make for a very special human! James is not only a friend and client of ours, but he is also our go-to guy for horses that need to be hauled to the clinic for routine appointments or emergencies.

Thunderstorm, snow storm, middle of the night - James is a big reason we’ve been able to get many horses the care that they need in urgent situations, safely.

CVEC thanks you for your dedication to our patients and clients, James!
