Yesterday morning this beautiful big maiden mare gave birth to this cracking frozen AI c**t at the clinic. It’s fantastic to see the fruits of our hard work 11 months down the track. Both mum and bub are doing extremely well and will be going to their owner’s home tomorrow.

EQUINE SARCOIDS...

Equine sarcoids around sensitive areas of the horse have always been a frustration for equine practitioners, given that typical treatments such as laser, surgical debride, freeze/thaw, chemotherapy and topical ointments can often cause a lot of localised reaction and are otherwise too dangerous.

With the recent availability of the human BCG vaccine, a very successful treatment regime is now available as can be seen from these photos.

Would this treatment regime have been useful for cases in the past - "definitely" but at least now we have something in our armoury to combat these situations.

GENDER NEUTRAL...

Never a dull moment at Belvoir Equine Hospital after hours 😂

This Thoroughbred that presented for a hind leg laceration revealed somewhat of a surprise when the initial clinical exam was done...😯

The horse raced as a "gelding" for 2 unsuccessful attempts and has since been an excellent pleasure horse.

He urinates through his p***s backwards, has teats, a non-viable v***a and no sc***um.

First hermaphrodite we have seen for a while.

WELCOME MONICA!
A few weeks overdue…but we would like to welcome Dr Monica Bai to the Belvoir Equine team!
Monica has already wowed every client she has dealt with - for both her knowledge and care of their horses and her beautiful, personable character.
Monica graduated from Murdoch University in 2021 and then completed a 12-month rotating internship at WestVETS small animal & equine hospital in Brisbane, rotating between equine anesthesia, internal medicine, imaging, small ruminants and small animal medicine.
She relocated back to Perth in 2023 and joined the team at Belvoir.
Monica grew up in China before moving to Australia. She spent her childhood with Mongolian horses and involved with local events. She has always had a great passion for horses and aspired to become an equine veterinarian from a young age. She has a keen interest in equine internal medicine, especially foal medicine, and the investigation of musculoskeletal issues.

OVARIECTOMY...

How does the saying go? “She’s being a typical chestnut mare!” 😣

Well in this patient’s case she had a very big reason to be acting up.
The owner reported this pony mare as acting like a stallion, so we suspected a cystic o***y…

An abdominal ultrasound and blood test was performed which confirmed an enlarged left o***y that required surgical intervention.

Due to the size of the cystic o***y, the decision was made to perform the surgery under GA as it was too large to remove via flank incision (a standing procedure).

As you can see from the picture, this poor pony would have been very happy to be relieved of the rock melon sized tumour!! And is now recovered well and a much happier mare 😊

We are proud to be sponsoring the Juvenile Sunday draft and anyone looking for something to do this weekend should come along and check it out 😊
