Full House at The Vet Barn! Best time of the year.

Due to ongoing near blizzard weather, low visibility, and off and on electricity in Montezuma, the vet clinic office will try to open later today. Exactly when, depends on the weather. I am currently unaware of Dr Jodi's availability this morning and don't assume she even has electricity. I will try to update as soon as possible. STAY SAFE!

Locals! There is a long haired black and white - either Border Collie or Australian Shepherd running east on HWY 56 from the Ingalls Blacktop corner to the old Co-op Elevator (west elevator), where she/he took a detour off the highway and to the Anhydrous fill station on the north side of the highway, and behind the buildings at RANS, where I lost sight of them. The dog has a mostly white face, but other than that, black and white spread out pretty evenly. It is wearing a collar. If you are looking for your dog, I would start behind RANS.

Fall laminitis refers to cases of laminitis or founder that occur in the autumnal months. Although laminitis can happen in any season, anecdotally there seems to be an uptick in the number of cases in the fall.

Why could this be?

• As the days get shorter and colder, grasses have been shown to respond to this stress with higher sugar concentrations. Diets with higher simple sugar concentrations may increase the risk of laminitis.

• Decreases in exercise may cause increases in body condition. Fat or obese horses are at risk of developing laminitis.

• Horses naturally have increased levels of certain hormones in the fall. If you have a horse with PPID (previously referred to as equine Cushing’s), the increase in their cortisol levels could put them at risk for laminitis.

If you have questions concerning fall laminitis or are concerned that your horse may be at an increased risk, contact your equine veterinarian so that they can properly evaluate your horse's unique situation.

Thank you to the Horse Owner Education Committee for providing this information.

Dear Clients,

Today I start back in the office. On behalf of my family, I want to thank you for being understanding as we walked a hard journey this past 18 months and especially the last 3 months. Your understanding, love and support will never be forgotten. As our new normal unfolds we are ready to continue serving our clients and 4-legged patients!

Big thank you to Carla for holding down the fort. She keeps the wheels turning for us. Another big shout out to Dr. Farney for stepping in and seeing appointments and taking care of our patients. Forever grateful. 🐶🐈🐐🐄🐂🐎🐑🐩

Dr. Jodi
