Happy Worm Wednesday from the Elves! They were very helpful and did some maintenance on our F***l Egg Count machine so that it will be all ready for the spring season. The spring/summer are the times of year when we recommend that you do f***l egg counts on your horses to see if they need to be dewormed more than just once a year in the fall. A spring f***l egg count allows you to classify your horse as a low, medium, or high shedder to help you reduce pasture contamination, as well as to ensure that your that you are using effective dewormers to control your parasite population!

It's perfect snowman building weather! Barley and Brome ventured outside for a bit of winter fun. If you stop by the clinic, you might see their creation!

Barley had a spectacular fall on the ice last week and strained one of the muscles in his back. Good thing Brome was able to use our regenerative laser to help accelerate his healing process and provide some pain relief! For more information on our laser, please check out our blog post at the link below!

The Elves brought some treat presents for their two favourite barn cats, Betty and Veronica, who were very thrilled to accept their gift! Brome held very, very still and actually got Betty to eat out of her hands! Tis the season to cuddle up cozy with your furry companions! Like this post and comment below a photo of your fuzzy friend to be entered to win a dog/cat 4Cyte. This daily oral supplement is great for our arthritic animals to reduce inflammation in the joints and has been shown to actually help with cartilage repair!

Barley and Brome decided to practice their upper airway scopes today so they can be an extra set of hands around the clinic! Did you know that horses can show signs of asthma even in winter? Horses are often stabled during the night and ridden in an enclosed arena in the winter where they can be exposed to higher levels of dust.

The Elves were very sweet today and helped our receptionist, Sarah, with some extra holiday decorating! We think they did a great job on the horseshoe Christmas Tree!

The Elves rode Rudolph down from the North Pole and asked us to do a health examination and vaccines to make sure that he was all ready to go for the round-the-world trip at the end of the month. Sadly, they had forgotten to bring any money with them this year, but luckily we now work with iFinance so the Elves were able to get a loan to help cover his visit! For more information about the iFinance program please do not hesitate to reach out to our reception team or explore the link below!
