Cheers to an Amazing First Year at Fen Vet Equine Reproduction! ๐ŸŽ‰

Weโ€™re thrilled to share that we welcomed 171 mares, achieved a fantastic 72% pregnancy rate, and performed over 40 embryo flushes with an 80% success rate. Plus, we collected from 24 different stallions and kicked off our OPU program this summerโ€”what a phenomenal year!

This season has truly surpassed our expectations, and we couldnโ€™t have achieved this without our entire teamโ€”from our front-end stars to our in-clinic experts and every amazing support member in between. Your dedication made it all possible!

A huge THANK YOU from all of us at Fen Vet Equine Reproduction! Hereโ€™s to continuing the magic! โœจ๐Ÿš€

โœจ๐Ÿ“ฃ INTRODUCING Dr. Alysson Macedo โœจ๐Ÿ“ฃ
Introducing Dr. Alysson Macedo, a veterinarian with a passion for reproductive medicine. Originally hailing from Brazil, Dr. Alysson earned his veterinary degree from Santa Catarina State University in 2013 before embarking on an extraordinary journey in equine reproduction.

In 2014, Dr. Alyssonโ€™s pursuit of knowledge led him to Canada, where he pursued graduate studies focusing on early pregnancy in horses. His dedication to the field blossomed further through a reproduction-focused internship in the Edmonton area, where he swiftly rose to the role of lead reproduction veterinarian, honing his skills and expertise over three fruitful years.

As the demand for his services grew, Dr. Alysson merged forces with Westhills Equine Veterinary Services, solidifying his reputation as a leader in equine reproductive care for another three years. Despite the success, Dr. Alyssonโ€™s heart remained in Calgary, where family beckoned him home.

Dr. Alyssonโ€™s passion for equine reproduction knows no bounds, with a particular emphasis on advanced techniques for both mares and stallions. His unwavering commitment to excellence drives him to push for the highest standards of care in every aspect of his work.

In his downtime, Dr. Alysson finds solace in the mountains alongside his partner and their loyal companion, Arnie the dog. Despite his Brazilian roots, he has developed a fondness for skiing, ensuring that the winter months pass swiftly with exhilarating adventures on the slopes.

Excitement brims as Dr. Alysson joins the esteemed team at Fen Vet Equine Reproduction. Eager to embark on this new adventure, he looks forward to leveraging his expertise to serve both old and new clients alike, fulfilling their equine reproductive needs with dedication and precision.

โœจ๐Ÿ“ฃ INTRODUCING Dr. Don Miller โœจ๐Ÿ“ฃ
Introducing Dr. Don Miller, a distinguished figure in the world of veterinary medicine with a lifelong commitment to advancing reproductive techniques in both cattle and horses. Born and raised in Saskatoon, Dr. Millerโ€™s journey in veterinary science began at the esteemed University of Saskatchewan and continued at the Western College of Veterinary Medicine, where he earned his BSc., DVM, and MVSc. degrees.
Dr. Millerโ€™s Master of Veterinary Science degree focused on breeding soundness in both cattle and horses, laying the foundation for his groundbreaking work in assisted reproductive techniques. Since graduating, he has dedicated his veterinary practice to pioneering advancements in this field, witnessing remarkable transformations in the industry over the years.
From the early days of complete surgical procedures requiring general anesthesia to the present-day non-surgical approaches, Dr. Miller has been at the forefront of innovation. He has witnessed the evolution of reproductive techniques with cattle, from traditional methods to the widespread use of cooled and frozen semen, embryo transfer, and even cutting-edge techniques like IVF and ICSI.
In 1985, Dr. Miller founded Sundown Livestock Transplants, a pivotal moment that marked the beginning of his influential career in equine reproductive work. By 1992, he expanded his focus to include importing semen from the USA and providing comprehensive breeding and embryo transfer services to horse owners in western Canada.
Throughout the early 2000s, Dr. Miller and his family played a crucial role in the Calgary Stampedeโ€™s renowned โ€œBorn To Buckโ€ program. Hosting the elite bucking string at their Cremona facility, along with the legendary six-time world champion ba****ck stallion, G-65 Grated Coconut, they contributed to the creation of offspring that continue to dominate the rodeo arena and breeding pastures today.
Dr. Miller resides with his family at the Cremona location, where both of his sons are deeply involved in the livestock industry. One son excels as a professional tie-down roper, farrier, and horse trainer, while the other thrives as a cattle breeder, livestock marketer, and respected cattle judge.
Now, Dr. Miller eagerly anticipates joining the team of professionals at Fen Vet Equine Reproduction. With his wealth of experience and unwavering dedication to excellence, he looks forward to offering his services and expertise to help achieve the clinic's goal of providing quality care and breeding success to clients.

โœจ๐Ÿ“ฃ INTRODUCING Dr. Deanna Larsen ๐Ÿ“ฃโœจ
Meet Dr. Deanna, a dedicated equine veterinarian originally hailing from Edmonton, AB. Her journey in veterinary medicine began with a Bachelor of Science in Animal Health from the University of Alberta, followed by the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon, SK, where she earned her veterinary degree.

Driven by a passion for excellence, Dr. Deanna embarked on a comprehensive internship program encompassing large animal medicine, surgery, reproduction, and ambulatory care. This intensive year-long experience honed her skills and deepened her expertise in equine healthcare.

For the past three years, Dr. Deanna has been making a significant impact in the Cairstaris area, practicing general equine medicine with a keen focus on reproductive services. Her love for all aspects of reproduction, particularly her affinity for working with mares and witnessing the foals on the ground, reflects her unwavering dedication to the field.

In her spare time she enjoys riding horses, spending time with her husband and child, and adventures with her dog named Noodle.

Excited to embark on a new chapter, Dr. Deanna is thrilled to join the team at Fen Vet Equine Reproduction. With her wealth of experience and boundless enthusiasm, she looks forward to contributing her expertise to further the clinicโ€™s mission of excellence in equine reproductive care.

Welcome to Alana Balbarโ€™s corner of the equine reproduction world! With eight years of dedicated service in the field, Alana has established herself as the go-to wiz for all things paperwork-related.

Detail-oriented to the core, Alana leaves no stone unturned when it comes to organizing and communicating with clients. With her expertise, she can field a million questions on the subject, providing clarity and reassurance every step of the way.

While Alana excels in many aspects of equine reproduction, her true passion lies in handling stallions and orchestrating all facets of their care. From meticulous scheduling to ensuring every detail is in place, she thrives on the precision and coordination required.

One of Alanaโ€™s favorite moments in the reproductive process is witnessing the magic of embryo transfer, especially when that elusive black dot appears on the screen, signaling the promise of new life. Itโ€™s moments like these that fuel her dedication and love for her work.

In her spare time, youโ€™ll find Alana hitting the rodeo trail with Chanse and their two dogs, Jax and scout.
