💉 The literal “shot heard round the world”. It sounds like a horse received Flunixin or Banamine intramuscularly on an episode of last night? We would like to remind everyone that despite being labeled for intra-muscular use, horses should only ever receive this drug orally or intra-venously. Something that the folks at Yellowstone would need to be on the lookout for after this misplaced administration would be signs of gas and swelling under the neck or a painful injection site. Administering IM banamine to a horse can cause clostridial myositis and can lead to a serious infection that requires surgical and antibiotic intervention. Despite intervention, these infections can be fatal.

We had such a great time at our Lobster & Lameness event!

Big thanks to for taking the time to provide such valuable information.

Our friends at Lochte Feed and General Store provided some fabulous door prices, and the team made sure we had the perfect lobster rolls to eat!

We look forward to seeing y’all at our next event!

We forgot our usual handy-dandy notebook on this morning’s ranch call… so we improvised with a fancy sticker book left in the truck courtesy of Dr. Carroll’s daughter. Rory rocked the sparkles.

Meet Denver!!!

Our employee Sarah found him wandering the country roads this past weekend.

He’s a little banged up but full of love and purrs! This boy wants a someone to love him!

He’s been dewormed, treated for fleas and mites, and will be neutered/vaccinated at no charge once he’s recovered from his road rash and nutritional deficiencies.

If you’s like to give him a home, let’s us know! He’s the sweetest

As if we didn’t already know, horses are the masters of mishaps!

Clyde's head laceration makes him the third young knucklehead in three days to show up with a similar mishap!

We suspect (but have yet to prove) that there must be an underground newsletter where horses of the Hill Country tell each other what the injury of the week is!

The good news is that head lacerations are extremely forgiving and heal well with the right care.

Saying goodbye to our patients is so incredibly hard, but we are grateful for the years that they were entrusted to our care. We build bonds with our patients and their owners that forever live in our hearts and memories.

Bridging the gap between farriers and veterinarians is critical to providing a comprehensive approach to patient care. For those of you who have met our equine podiatrist, Dr. Pullen, you know that his passion is education.

Through the collaborative efforts of Colorado State University and the talented professionals involved in this incentive, veterinary students will be provided with the fundamentals needed to excel in equine practice.

We are incredibly proud of Dr. Pullen and the work being done at CSU to improve equine podiatry across the board.

Go RAMS!
