Horse owners be aware: With the onset of winter, the risk of botulism increases, particularly from November to January. Botulism is often associated with contaminated hay and can lead to severe symptoms such as muscle weakness and paralysis. Early diagnosis can be tricky, but it's crucial for successful treatment. If you suspect botulism, seek veterinary care immediately. At our hospital, we offer treatment with antitoxin, but timing is essential. Don't forget about prevention – ask us about the botulism vaccine, especially if your horses consume round bale hay. Reach us anytime at (304) 636-8363 #HorseHealth #BotulismAwareness

Our Story

Allegheny Equine Veterinary Service is a full-service equine and large animal veterinary practice based in Elkins, West Virginia. The practice was established in the Fall of 2005 by Dr. Tracy Walker. For ten years the practice has operated exclusively as an ambulatory medical service to Randolph, Barbour, Tucker, Upshur, and Preston Counties in the mountains of West Virginia.

Hospital and Ambulatory Care

Since opening, the practice has offered advanced diagnostics and services that were previously unavailable in the area. In recent years, it became apparent that a haul-in facility was needed and would provide even more opportunities for availability of equine and large animal veterinary care. In May 2015, we opened a 5,000 square foot hospital in Elkins, West Virginia. The practice continues to offer ambulatory care with the addition of enhanced care in a hospital setting.
