What an Abcess season this year has been! Our old horse George developed an abcess and as a result, a fever from the infection; all happening over the last big storm that blew through.
After some IV antibiotics, Intramuscular antibiotics, keeping a close eye on his temperature with anti inflamatories, It was a relief to be able to box him on a good, dry surface and work with the vet to get him right again.
We offer our boxes and services for hire for persistent abcesses to boxrest, feel free to get in touch.
Merry Christmas from Gherkin
Gherkins stay with us at Grove 🥰🐐
Some advice from Vet Associates - managing horses through Fireworks holidays
Remember the horses and other LARGE animals this Guy Fawkes!
Move horses & farm animals away from fireworks. Make sure all fences are secure. Stable horses where possible. Do well in advance so the animals can get used to their new surroundings.
The NZVA supports a ban on the private sale of fireworks.
Say no to letting fireworks off privately. Choose a public fireworks display instead.
See our press release http://ow.ly/RAGQ50wPKPV
NZVA’s top tips:
- Find out where & when firework displays will take place near you.
- Do the following to minimise stress to your animal during these times.
1. Keep pets indoors, close curtains & windows.
2. Bring inside rabbits, guinea pigs & other pets usually housed outside.
3. Turn on the radio or television to create a familiar sound. Consider pet specific music to reduce anxiety.
4. Remove items from the room/area that could injure your animal.
5. Ensure your pet has somewhere comforting to hide (an igloo, box, crate) or somewhere else they feel safe to retreat to.
6. Exercise dogs early in the day – avoid being out during dusk when fireworks are set off. Ensure dogs have been stimulated sufficiently during the day – they are more likely to rest in the evening.
7. Be calm and reassuring. Remember, you cannot reinforce fear with comfort. Fear is an unpleasant emotion. Providing reassurance will help allay that.
8. If your animal has previously shown fearful behaviour, contact a veterinary clinic now for additional coping strategies – don’t wait till Guy Fawkes day. Speak with your veterinarian about options for your animals before, during and after the stressful fireworks period or event.
9. Both cats and dogs should be microchipped & have a collar and identification tag with your contact details on it.
10. Move horses & farm animals away from fireworks. Make sure all fences are secure. Stable horses where possible. Do well in advance so the animals can get used to their new surroundings.
Hey guys! Guy Fawkes is just about here. We are offering our foaling boxes and yards for anyone who is feeling stressed about their horses over this weekend.
We know from experience even the best laid plans and communication with neighbors does not always work!
