All of our Jefferson County and front range area clients should be aware of the push the county is making to close the Jefferson County Fair Grounds. This is one more stand Jeffco is taking to push agriculture and a western way of life out of our county. If we do not all speak with one clear voice we will watch a piece of our western heritage and community disappear.

Save the Jeffco Fairgrounds. It only takes one voice at the right pitch to start an avalanche. - Dianna Hardy The buildings and facilities at the fairgrounds are older and in need of re-investment. But the site and its buildings have been used for livestock, equine activities, and other community no...

Mr. Sandman was scheduled for his fall vaccines today, but when Dr. Baird arrived the little fella appeared to have a spider bite. The bite was painful and Mr. Sandman was quite unhappy with Dr. Baird. In the end, the bite was treated and we will watch it over the next 3-5 days and come back in several weeks for vaccines. Before we left Mr Sandman forgave Dr. Baird and gave him a fuzzy kiss.

Here is a great fall checklist brought to you by AAEP!

🍂 Crisp mornings are a sure sign that fall is here, and it's time to start checking items off your horse care to-do list! 🍂

Our Fall Care Checklist covers some of the essentials, and here's a little more on why each one matters:

💉 Fall vaccinations: Vaccine recommendations vary by location and individual horse, so talk with your veterinarian about what your horse needs this season.

🪱 Parasite control: Parasite risks and the best deworming approach differ depending on where you live. Your veterinarian can help you design a program that fits your horse and your region.

⚖️ Evaluate body condition: Thick winter coats can hide weight changes, so use your hands as well as your eyes. Assess condition now so you can plan any changes to your winter feeding program ahead of time.

🦷 Dental care: Good teeth help your horse chew and make the most of forage, which becomes even more important when pasture quality drops. Regular exams with your veterinarian are key.

🩹 Check your first aid kit: Replace anything expired, restock supplies you've used, and make sure your veterinarian's number is easy to find. A routine check now means you're ready when you need it.

❄️ Colic prevention: Cold weather can change how much your horse drinks and eats. Watch closely for changes in appetite and water intake, and call your veterinarian if something seems off.

And the to-do list doesn't end there! Don't forget to:

🧥 Repair and waterproof your horse's rugs: Fix tears, replace worn straps, and re-waterproof now so they're ready before the first cold, wet day.

🌾 Secure and store your hay properly: Keep it dry, covered, and off the ground with good airflow to help prevent mold and spoilage.

🏠 Assess your shelters for safety and soundness: Look for loose boards, protruding nails, roof leaks, and drainage trouble spots so your horses stay protected all winter long.

Not sure where to start? Your veterinarian can help you build a fall care plan tailored to your horse. 🩺

Save this post for later and share it with a fellow horse owner! 💙🧡

Vaccinate!!!

What can you do on to help control the spread? Rabies is 100% preventable! You can help prevent rabies infections by vaccinating your animals and keeping them away from wildlife that can spread the disease. Your local veterinary plays a key role in controlling rabies.

This is why we vaccinate for Rabies!!

Local health departments in North Carolina have evaluated hundreds of people for rabies after they interacted with baby goats that were part of a mobile petting zoo, according to the state Department of Health and Human Services.
