Dr Stevens' nephew, Karl, is working with the crew today and figured out all by himself how to tell the difference between bulls and heifers based on their external anatomy!! Pretty good for an 8 year old that hasn't grown up around cattle!!

07/30/2024

Good morning! Dr. Stevens will be out of the office from Tuesday, August 6th through Sunday, August 11th. While she is away, Lundeen Animal Hospital in Oneida (309.483.8633) will be taking our small animal sick appointments during business hours on the 6th and 7th and Miller's Veterinary Service in rural Atkinson (309.936.7622) will be taking our small animal sick appointments on the 8th and 9th, and Tri-County Animal Emergency in Peoria (309.672.1565) will be taking small animal emergencies after-hours. Any large animal sick appointments will be seen by Iliff Veterinary and Consulting in rural Wyoming (309.883.1466).
Our office will still be open to field any questions, refill medications, pick up food, etc. We really appreciate the area clinics helping out in order to give Dr. Stevens some time off!
While away, Dr. Stevens will be assisting the Junior and Open Beef Shows at the Illinois State Fair. She will be coordinating the social media for the shows! Dr. Stevens really enjoys this time away as she sits in the showring at the State Fair and gets to, secretly, cheer on her client's children as they exhibit their beef projects! We wish everyone good luck at the fair!

One of the very special parts about being a hometown, rural American veterinarian is that you become entwined in your client's lives, whether it was from your childhood or just from the years of clinical practice. You have the chance to celebrate their joys and comfort them in their times of grief.
This afternoon, Dr Stevens was able to join her clients, and more importantly life-long family friends, in the celebration of the marriage of their youngest daughter! The Spiegel's really know how to throw a party!!! May God bless the marriage of Margaret and her fiance Zachary!!
(Fun fact: Dr Stevens' father was in Fred Spiegel's wedding and Fred was in Dr Stevens' parents' wedding.)
Before leaving the reception, Dr Stevens challenged Laura Spiegel to wear her beautiful dress the next time we work cattle. We will keep you posted!! πŸ™ŒπŸ€—πŸŽ‰πŸ’–

Our large animal haul-in facility is up and running smoothly! During the new clinic planning process someone asked Dr Stevens if she just woke up one day and decided to build a clinic..... Her response was simple, "absolutely not! I have been dreaming and planning this for years"! We got the best compliment this morning while working bulls through the facility, "you guys really thought of everything"! We have also heard that from so many of our small animal clients! This is the BEST compliment we could get and we are so proud to be able to share the facility with y'all! Happy Friday!!!

We love learning about new pieces of equipment that help make our job easier and safer!! Isabella is modeling the new piece of equipment that we were exposed to this morning! It is a lightweight, plastic/rubber device that has a hook on one end that the cow can chew on while we place ear tags in her. Sometimes the cow does not appreciate getting new earrings, even if we use already pierced holes, and she will throw her head about. A cow's head is awfully heavy and can hurt you easily (ask Dr Stevens how she knows....) so it was very nice of the Baum family for introducing this to our SVC family!!

Anyone else finding so many ticks on their pets this year?! (Of course they are dead as Apple and Clementine received their monthly prevention yesterday) Keep in mind that ticks can spread diseases that can harm your pet. Interestingly enough when Dr Stevens adopted Apple from a shelter, Apple was suffering from Lyme's Disease. If left untreated, the Lyme's Disease could have affected her kidneys, causing kidney failure. Luckily she was treated successfully and is still living her best life! πŸ’–πŸŽ‰
