Hey folks, my phone is one of the many nationwide hit by the ATT outage. I can't receive calls or texts or any messages unless I have a WIFI connection.
I will attempt to stop every few hours to check for texts. If you have an emergency, I would suggest taking your horse to Hagyard or Rood and Riddle.

Kentucky folks, with all the rain we have had recently, we have seen an uptick in the number of Potomac Horse Fever cases. I have treated 3 in the last 2 weeks and the grapevine says there are a number of other cases out there. Please keep an eye out for any of the following symptoms in your horses: not eating, not drinking, fever, diarrhea, or colic. If your horse is experiencing any of these signs, please contact your vet immediately. In the past, I have recommended vaccination for PHF only on properties where it has occurred in the previously. However, given the current cases I’m seeing, I might rethink that advice. The vaccine is not 100% protective (few are) but it does reduce the severity of the symptoms.

Botulism can infect horses even when they are consuming bagged feeds. Several show horses have died from the following incident. Please make sure your horses are vaccinated! The vaccine is not 100% against all strains, but it is way better than not vaccinating!

The FDA has announced a recall on alfalfa cubes from Manzanola feeds in Colorado. “Manzanola Feeds is Recalling Certain Lots of Top of the Rockies Alfalfa Cubes due to Possible Clostridium botulinum Health Risk”

Out of an abundance of caution Manzanola Feeds is voluntarily recalling certain lots of Top of the Rockies Alfalfa Cubes because it has the potential to be contaminated with Clostridium botulinum
