Still looking for a useful Christmas present for a pet lover or for yourself?

I have 2 horse first aid kits and 5 dog/cat first aid kits left (can make more if requested) left over from a local show.

They both include cheat sheets on first aid management of common conditions.
Delivery within Griffith or Leeton included

Great horses (like Heidi ❤️ pictured here) and owners make working in 35 degrees whilst pregnant much easier. The only shade we had was on this little red dirt road and she stood impeccably for her X-rays ensuring we were in and out as quickly as possible.

Luke’s back! Last trip for a couple of months.
18th & 19th November in Leeton.

Assisted rehoming

Looking for a home for this gorgeous girl

‘Lucy’
5 year old female entire (not desexed) short haired collie. Enjoys walks and is great with kids. Mainly an outdoor dog but does come inside.
Based 20mins out of Griffith.
Honest reason for rehoming.

If you’d like more info message me and I can get you in contact with the owner

Just a quick update on availability going forward. I am now fully booked until I go on maternity leave for any routine appointments except for the Forbes area run in November. I will continue to cover equine emergencies as much as I can based on where I am located and what is best for the horse in need 🐴

I had a massive week last week, no wonder I'm pooped!
- 33 horse dentals
- 4 hendra vaccinations
- 3 out of hour horse emergencies (2 colics and 1 grass seed in eye)
- 4 horses through fences
- 5 horse blood tests
- 1 set of horse xrays
- 4 dog vaccinations
- helped 3 families say goodbye to their beloved pets

Rest assured if I'm taking a little longer than normal to get back to you, it is not because I want to be! Thankyou for your patience!

Eye post grass seed removal shown below. The grey spot on the eyeball is where it was removed, leaving damage on the cornea (a corneal ulcer) which will now undergo aggressive treatment. Lucky this little girl has an attentive owner who knew eye issues warrant a Sunday night visit.

*** NOVEMBER TRAVEL DATES ***

Last month before I switch to staying local prior to maternity leave. If you would like your horse seen before the end of the year please reach out ASAP. 🐴

*Updated 22.10*
Striked out dates are fully booked.

23/09/2024

*Important*

I will be away and out of reception from this Saturday the 28th of September to Wednesday the 16th of October.

This means if your pet is on long term medication (heart disease, pain relief, anti-anxiety) please ensure you have an adequate amount for this time. Last chance to let me know will be tomorrow night so I can have it all arranged before I go.

Cases that require continued vet care will be handed over to a suitable vet and equine emergencies will be advised to go to the wonderful equine team at Charles Sturt Uni.

Barellan show this weekend! Proudly sponsoring the horse events this year.

I have some exciting news to share with you all that will be impacting RMV in the near future.
I will be going on maternity leave for the early part of 2025.
I will be switching to urgent equine and Griffith small animal only in December.

What does this mean?
If your horse is due for a dental in December/January/February you can choose to book in to a date before then, wait until I am travelling again or I can recommend another equine dental vet (it is likely you will need to float your horse to them). If you're not sure which option is best for your horse & situation please ask me.
I will be travelling more these next couple of months to treat as many horses as possible prior.

If your dog/cat is due for vaccination or you think you may be going into boarding kennels over that time please book your pet in with me prior or I can recommend another vet you can travel to. The wonderful Yoogali Vet Clinic have kindly agreed to cover me whilst I'm off work.

I am aiming to be back on the road in March (if bub plays along!) and am happy to start taking tentative bookings for then.

Knowing what's normal and what's not is part of responsible breeding.
There are lots of valuable and free resources online to learn this.
Ensure you're getting your information from veterinary sites.

The first 24 hours of your foal's life is critical. These little guys are so susceptible to disease without the right care.
If you are breeding this season ensure you are well educated on the importance of mare vaccination and foal colostrum/IgG testing

Foal Week!

We are well into foaling season. Do you know the 1/2/3 rule of foaling?

16/08/2024

There are 4 things we treated in this horse’s mouth, can you spot them?

14/08/2024

The parents of these 2 little boys watched them bravely get their first puppy vaccination and microchips.
Did you know puppies generally need 3 vaccinations (some breeds such as Rottweilers are recommended to have 4) to be safely protected from diseases like parvovirus and distemper virus?

It is also a chance for your vet to thoroughly examine your pup and for you to ask any question (no question is too silly!)

These 2 brave cuties are ready and are still looking for their new homes ❤️

Luke’s back! Last trip for a couple of months. 18th & 19th November in Leeton.

This little girl was just an onlooker for a herd mates appointment, but I couldn’t resist. Isn’t she the cutest!

Ever wondered how we wake animals up from anaesthetic gently? 😂

Can anyone see what makes this horse very unique? Answer will appear in comments soon!

Albert Einswine after patiently laying down for a chat about pig manicures and pedicures with his amazing mum, decided he was ready for his mud mask. This not so little piggy is a very happy boy!

Is this not the cutest nose ❤️

Thought I'd share a recent case with everyone of a lovely horse, a committed owner and a great team over at Goulburn Valley Equine Hospital (GVEH) 'Gopha' was diagnosed with a fractured upper cheek tooth. Being a young horse, these teeth can be up to 4 inches long and communicate with his sinus so he was referred to GVEH for removal. The tooth was removed by a 'minimally invasive transbuccal technique' (through his cheek) using a special screw and sent back home to Griffith for his post operative care. Gopha was an incredible patient throughout. Despite multiple rechecks over the following 4 weeks; each involving an intravenous sedative, stepping into the crush, standing still for exam with mirror and oroscope (mouth camera) and gentle targeted flushing of the tooth removal site. Gopha was impeccably behaved and actually became more willing to undergo each treatment as time went on. Using the oroscope meant we could send footage to Gopha's surgeon for progress updates without having to travel to Shepparton. Absolute kudos to his owner Nicolle for her commitment to Gopha; following every post-op care instruction, handling Gopha calmly all whilst keeping his comfort front of mind.
