It’s Terrible Thursday when you realise someone moved into your drawer… let’s hope it’s not a permanent residency! At least we are getting lots of interesting dance moves out of the Dutchies today 😳😂🕷️

We absolutely love these owner updates! In the spring of 2023 I was put under a bit of pressure, this stunning mare Rosie was booked to the stallion Carrick Diamond Lad. The stressful part of the equation was the fact that we had 1 single straw to play with. And it was the last one available to us. She had a stunning big c**t! Hard work pays off 🥳🦄

Don’t we all love a little trip down memory lane?
3 years ago today we received a call from our all time favourite horse woman Lois Sharam. She was carefully monitoring a pregnant mare. The mare showed no sign of being anywhere near ready to foal, but had a minute amount of discharge from the v***a. She brought her to us immediately and we discovered she was in labour, and had one of the worst cases of placentitis we had ever seen. The foal appeared dead when it was born but we resuscitated her successfully. Her purple gums and slow demeanour made us name her Beetroot. After a massive team effort of all staff and vets at Wyndholm Park she pulled through, and look at her now!

And on that note, do you know what’s lurking in your mares uterus?! Did you know cytology is one of the easy, non invasive diagnostics we can do in house to assess the state of the endometrium?
Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions about your mares fertility.

The pink glove brigade was at it again today. Do you know what’s lurking in your horses mouth? Do you think they deserve a proper oral examination, just like you when you visit a dentist? Get on it!

It's that time of year again... well almost.
Our busy season is coming up quickly so we need to get as organised as possible (is that even a thing?!)
We offer per cycle packages for chilled and frozen semen, as well as ET. Please get in touch if you have any questions about the services we offer.
We are looking forward to assisting you and your mare, fingers crossed for a good spring!

Is your horse is getting dental work without an educated vet, sedation, a bright light and mirror for examination of the whole mouth, and pink gloves?? You’re missing out! Do the right thing. Your horse will thank you for it.
