Come see us at the Carolina Heritage Fair!!
Dr. Jordan’s cat Thea loves her dog Sally! Do you have pets who are best friends? We would love to see pictures and videos in the comments!
Did you know we collect blood from the tail in cattle?
This might appear to be a boring video of a horse walking, but this was five minutes after Maverick woke up from his castration surgery - he’s relaxed and comfortable. We use pain / anti inflammatory meds prior to surgery, anesthesia drugs that decrease pain post op, local anesthesia, and laser treatment during recovery to minimize inflammation and pain on colts we castrate. Good pain management makes a huge difference in how they recover from surgery in both small and large animals!

Removing an area of infected material from a chicken’s foot.
Here’s how we remove the horn! You can see before and after photos in the post yesterday.
She is sedated and there are not nerves or blood vessels in this part of the horn. We reverse the sedation afterwards so she was back awake in just a few minutes.
Exam time includes treats!
A complete exam involves checking the mouth, eyes, ears, skin, abdomen, heart, lungs, and lymph nodes. And we include treats throughout so our patients enjoy their visits!
Crash is aptly named!
We love seeing Crash! He’s a big “help” to all our work!
This sweet mama had eclampsia (low blood calcium). We gave her an IV and she was much better right away!
