Happy Friday! ☀️

Today Dr. Baney, Jules and Maddie were excited to meet a new friend! Wally the pig is super snuggly, his favorite food is pumpkin and he is about 700lbs!

This was a great way to kick off the weekend!

By the end of this article, I was bursting with all the emotions. As most of our clients know, Dr. Baney and I come as a package deal. We have for many years. Finding someone to take my place in the truck was a task I did not know would be so hard! I knew coming so highly recommended from Sarah, Jules would be perfect for us. Watching our Jules grow into a confident, passionate and intelligent technician has made me so proud. We can not thank Sarah enough, or Jules for shining a bright light on a career that can be difficult at times.

I hired Julia Walton in 2018. She was 16, and it was the first summer we owned our farm. For nearly a year I’d done all the chores myself: feeding and turning out in the morning (just two horses then) before leaving for work as a high school teacher. I’d clean stalls and complete the evening tas...

This past Friday, EPVS and Boehringer Ingelheim were invited by Roaring Run Equestrian Center to speak at their Performance Horse Symposium! Our BI representative, Mr. Bob Henry, provided a very informative presentation on equine joint health and some of the products you may see Dr. Baney using on a daily basis. Followed by a delicious BBQ dinner, Dr. Baney presented on body condition, core strength, and prevention of injury in sport horses. Following lectures there were live demos on how to perform body condition scoring and core exercises! We would like to thank the Sodowsky family for inviting us, Mr. Bob Henry and BI for your huge support, and all the attendees (including the pre-vet students from IUP). We hope everyone learned something new to help them this season!

Another hysterical article written by our great friend. All of us horse lovers find this all too familiar!

I need security cameras, I thought, peering into the depths of the partially frozen, 100-gallon trough in my front pasture. My phone glowed eerily from the bottom, a sad little submarine. It’s a real shame no one else gets to see this.

Maddie will be out of the office tomorrow, Wednesday 1/29. Please be aware that some emails, medication refills and phone calls may be returned our next business day.

The office will be closing at 2pm today so that the staff may attend services to honor their friend, Sarah Gosch.

15/01/2025

Today we are mourning the loss and celebrating life of a dear friend and client who was taken from this world much too soon. Sarah Gosch will forever be remembered and loved for her smile, compassion/love for animals, kindness, witty sarcasm and selflessness. She will be greatly missed. Our hearts go out to her husband Peter, her parents/ family, friends, Mike (her second father/barn dad) and all who love her.

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that any memorial contributions be made to Animal Friends.
