Large neutered male cat showed up here at our clinic yesterday. Definitely a house cat. Not microchipped. If you’ve lost one call us and describe him 541-636-1191.

One of the things that sets our equine wellness and dental exams apart is that we take time to assess your horse’s total wellbeing. We don't show up, vaccinate your horse or just do a dental and leave. The appointment is comprehensive and we take time to address your concerns and questions.

This includes but is not limited to evaluating every bodily system, nutrition, soundness, dental health, muscular and skeletal conformation, all aspects of their shoeing and trimming, vaccination records, and parasite loads using the University of Davis minimum standards of horse care. We use all of the information from your appointment as a baseline for continued care. You receive a complete report of our findings and recommendations for care following your appointment.

Schedule an appointment by calling 541-636-1191. We look forward to providing you with excellent veterinary care!

Vaccination is crucial in preventing canine distemper. A series of vaccinations is administered to puppies to increase the likelihood of building immunity when the immune system has not yet fully matured.
🐶 Avoid gaps in the immunization schedule and make sure distemper vaccinations are up to date.
🐶 Avoid contact with infected animals and wildlife
🐶 Use caution when socializing puppies or unvaccinated dogs at parks, puppy classes, obedience classes, doggy day care and other places where dogs can congregate.
** Pet ferrets should be vaccinated against canine distemper using a USDA-approved ferret vaccine.

In honor of Veterans Day. “I was surprised at her beauty and intelligence, and believe it or not, her esprit de corps. Like any other Marine, she was enjoying a bottle of beer with her comrades.” —Lieutenant General Randolph McC. Pate

The plucky little mare that became a beacon of hope for embattled soldiers during the Korean War was bought for $250 from a young boy at the Seoul racetrack. Trained to be a packhorse for the Recoilless Rifle Platoon, Anti-Tank Company, 5th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, she soon became a unit mascot. A notorious eater, Reckless was known to eat everything from scrambled eggs to chocolate to poker chips (at least $30 worth).

Her military role was to carry supplies and ammunition to combat zones and, if necessary, evacuate the wounded. She knew the routes from the base to the front lines so well that she was often able to travel them without a handler. The pinnacle of her military contribution occurred in March of 1953, during desperate fighting at the Battle of Outpost Vegas. On March 27, Reckless made an incredible 51 trips to frontline units, carrying 386 rounds of ammunition—nearly five tons—through enemy fire.

Her true service, however, was bringing hope and happiness to war-weary soldiers with her indomitable spirit. Sergeant Major James E. Bobbitt recalled, “It’s difficult to describe the elation and the boost in morale that little white-faced mare gave Marines as she outfoxed the enemy bringing vitally needed ammunition up the mountain.”

For her service, Reckless was promoted to the rank of corporal in 1953 and sergeant in 1954. She was decorated with two Purple Hearts, a Good Conduct Medal, a Presidential Unit Citation with star, a National Defense Service Medal, a Korean Service Medal, a United Nations Service Medal, a Navy Unit Commendation, and a Republic of Korea Presidential Unit Citation, all of which she proudly wore on her regal red and gold blanket.

The war hero was retired on Nov. 10, 1960, with full military honors, and lived out her days at the stables at Camp Pendleton in California." https://americancowboy.com/people/history-archive/horses-war-23983/

It is important to allow horses space for curiosity or their natural instinct to explore can turn into fear. Here I’m allowing a young horse to explore my hat during his first veterinary visit. I wait on him until he chooses to leave the hat on his own. I do not wave it or throw it at him. I simply wait. Then I put it back on my head and proceed with the exam. Horses require that you go at their speed. Period.

Visiting the veterinarian is an essential part of any cat’s life. Beginning from a young age, it’s critical that your feline friend goes for a check-up every year. Though these appointments don’t occur frequently, it’s possible that your cat may still experience anxiety during their visit. https://pbxx.it/eZBN05
