Life lately… ✨

We survived breeding season (barely), we finally decided to let Rachel go on a vacation earlier in July, and we finally got a filly.

May 31st, our beloved Wrenn, gave us a spicy little girl who is now formally known as ‘Lana Del Bay’.

PS - we will start doing better about social media.

Sincerely,

Katelyn who has been slack on social media.

We have some exciting news!

Moving forward we are now Rutherford Equine Mobile Services PLLC.

With that comes a few changes within the practice…. We are no longer accepting new clients unless they are equines. We will still provide the utmost care to our current non equine clients.

Dr. Rachel would like to focus on her passion of horses including all aspects of reproduction, preventive and wellness care along with chiropractic and accupuncture.

Thank you for all your support throughout years and moving forward.

Talk about ending the year with a bang…

two enucleations in one week. 👀

These surgeries were performed to increase quality of life due to previous injuries/infections.

Both patients can return to a normal life including work after a brief recovery period.

we appreciate all the Christmas candy but this gift was the sweetest… 🍬

This little guy was a post Christmas surprise to his mom and he sure did make the office a little brighter for a few days.

Cheers to 2024!

Brag alert! 🚨

With all the extremely long hours getting through breeding season here at RLA, Dr. B still finds time to share her passion of equine reproduction with her personal horses.

our, goofy, not so little Luigi, formally known as ‘Luigi BOF’ was a superstar at the warmblood inspection last weekend!

He was given lovely remarks and titled site champion… then swiftly returned home for a nap.

Thank you to every single person who has a hand in our breeding program and we’re already looking forward to the 2024 season!
