🐷 Pig Spa Day! ❤️
Did you know our pig patients get their own spa days too? Today we visited several farms to give our porcine friends some much-needed TLC — because pigs need routine care just like any other pet or livestock!
Our Pig Spa Day services include:
✨ Professional hoof trims (using our power Dremel — often without sedation, but gentle sedation options are available when it’s best for the patient)
✨ Tusk trimming
✨ Annual vaccines and wellness exams
✨ Skin and nutrition recommendations
Keeping up with routine pig care isn’t just for looks — it’s essential for comfort and long-term health.
🐖 Overgrown tusks can rub and cause painful ulcers or mouth sores, making eating uncomfortable.
🐖 Long or uneven hooves can alter posture and gait, leading to ligament strain, arthritis, and chronic joint pain.
We absolutely love our pig patients and their wonderful, caring owners who help keep them happy, healthy, and on their feet (literally)! 🩷🐷

Mission complete! 🐐📚
After soaking up 16 hours of small ruminant education, I think my immune system finally said “enough is enough.” 😅 Thankfully, I made it through all three of my seminars, and we even had time to explore historic Salem, MA this evening. Looking forward to one more full day of lectures and learning before heading back home!

✨ What people think I’m doing when I say I’m in San Diego speaking at a veterinary conference: endless sunshine and palm trees 🌴☀️
✨ What I’m actually doing: learning, teaching, and (most importantly) reconnecting with the people who inspire me daily 💚

I’m so grateful for opportunities like this—not just to share knowledge, but to spend time with the friends, mentors, and colleagues who shaped me into the veterinarian I am today. These lifelong friendships continue to fuel my passion, push me to grow, and remind me that when we support each other, we can accomplish so much more.

This community makes the long hours, tough cases, and constant juggling absolutely worth it—and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. 🐾💉❤️

In 3 days I think I’ve seen one of every species that I provide vet service for (including some honeybees). We’ve had a great fun filled 1st week with our visiting veterinary student, Linnea. She’s originally from Kalamazoo MI area but currently a 4th year at Wisconsin.
