🐐 Kidding Season is Here! Know When to Call for Help 🐐

Kidding season is an exciting time, but it’s important to be prepared in case complications arise. Most goats give birth without issues, but dystocia (difficult birth) can happen. Knowing the signs can help you act quickly to protect both the doe and her kids.

🚨 Signs of Dystocia 🚨

🔸 Labor lasting longer than 30 minutes without progress
🔸 The doe is straining hard but no kid is appearing
🔸 Malpresentation (only one leg visible, breech, or head without legs)
🔸 Weak contractions or labor that suddenly stops
🔸 Signs of distress in the doe (excessive vocalization, exhaustion, or shock)

If you notice any of these signs, don’t wait! Call Brown Veterinary Services immediately for assistance. Early intervention can save lives.

📞 678-464-1712 give us a call or text Brown Veterinary Services

Stay prepared, watch for warning signs, and let’s have a safe and successful kidding season! 💕🐐

“So that’s what my bones looks like?!?”

This Little Beardie came to see my today because his leg was swollen and he wasn’t able to move it. His exam showed a swollen foot and ankle and the tip of his tail was missing.

I took some X-rays to rule out any fractures as a cause . I didn’t see any fractures but I did see joint swelling. This poor guy has an infected joint due to his tail tip falling off, leaving an exposed open wound. Bacteria then entered the wound and traveled from his tail tip to his foot.

He is now on antibiotics and should start improving soon.

⭐️⭐️Please join me in welcoming our newest receptionist /assitant to the practice. I am so happy to introduce Julienne Donaldson.💖⭐️⭐️

_____________________

Hi, my name is Julienne Donaldson and I'm super excited to join the team at Brown Veterinary! You'll likely see me at the front desk, or helping doctors in the exam rooms. I was born and raised in Social Circle and attended GWA. I am proud to say I have a Bachelor's of Science from UNG in Biology, with a focus on wildlife biology. I have worked in wildlife rescue since I was 12 years old, so I love all the exotics we get to see. I have also spent most of my life around horses, competing in dressage throughout the southeast. Before coming to BVS, I was a barn manager in the North Georgia area, so I am well versed in equine management as well. In my downtime, I love to hangout with my boyfriend and cats, go out to enjoy our beautiful state, or travel around the country. A fun fact about me, is my boyfriend and I spent 6 months living out of his truck, traveling the country. We drove 19,000 miles and saw 18 National Parks. We've now settled down back in Social Circle and I'm so happy that I've found a place with Dr. Brown and the team!

Dear people. ..: we don’t bill. Payment is due at time of services. We /I try real hard to give everyone options that suite your budgets and what you are trying to achieve. If I give you 3 options and you choose the $2000 option well that $2000 is due when the service is complete not when you get oaid.

Dont tell me after I’ve completed said service that you don’t have the funds because you better find the funds. Nothing sets my body and brain on fire more than not getting paid. And if you decide to pull the “your only in it for the money” BS line on me I’ll agree with you and say yep your right I am and you could of choose option one and put your pet to sleep instead which is also a reasonable option if you can not afford treatment.

I have a ton if empathy but i do not wok for free , nor do my employees. I am not govt funded and my loan on my new clinic still has to be paid. I do not have a sugar daddy or sugar mommy paying my bills either.

“Keyboard” came in today for eye swelling. This handsome beast shed recently and has residual skin stuck. We are increasing his warm soaks and humidity and adding eye drops to loosen it up.
