Important meeting approaching - please register asap to proceed.
We are hoping to follow this meeting on 12/4 at the Hunter Research Centre with an informative session for stud people and horse owners about best working management - more details to follow.
This is a very important subject due to increasing, concerning and widespread resistance patterns and inappropriate use of anthelmintics.
Hopefully we can raise awareness and improve things, together!

This week, we had the pleasure of Bandit as a patient. Oh my, those are the most enormous ears we have ever had in the hospital, and aren't they gorgeous.
Bandit joined us from Last Stop Donkey Program, as he required a little extra help after being gelded before heading to his new home. The racket that guy made when he knew liquorice was coming brought joy and warmth to our hearts all week.
Lovely to see Bandit back home convalescing with his buddy Eddie (who looks like he also has a story to tell!)

Update: Incredibly we have found a mare already who seems to have taken this lovely little guy. So good when these things come together in such a sad situation.

Sadly, we are looking for another foster mare for a foal born last night.
Unfortunately our fabulous foster mare professionals don’t have any available at the moment.

Update: A fabulous mare has been found for this foal, and they absolutely adore each other.

It really is a great industry - we were inundated with offers of help, apologies to anyone we didn’t get back to. The team at Vanderville Thoroughbreds were kind enough to offer their mare, who had tragically lost a foal recently, and even more incredibly - drove it all the way from Camden to Scone when transport was proving difficult. So lovely to see these two happily bonded and so grateful on behalf of our client to Nicole and her family for the loan of this horse.
