Itā€™s finally Spring & weā€™re doing a giveaway sponsored by Merckā€™s Bravecto! Itā€™s one of our favorite flea/tick preventatives because ONE dose lasts THREE months.

We recommend these preventative products so strongly because Monroe County is among the highest risk in the entire state for tick-bourne diseases, & weā€™ve seen far too many of our own patients affected. Just 4 doses per YEAR protects your pet & your peace of mind!

Any Riverstone client who purchases Bravecto will be entered to win this incredible Blackstone bundle with extra goodies for your backyard buddy!

This is the biggest instant rebate of the year, so stock up while we offer the deepest discount! Call or order through our app any time of day!

If youā€™ve already purchased Bravecto the last couple weeks, youā€™re in. Giveaway runs 3/17 - 4/30!

03/15/2025

Update: We are now OPEN if you need us for pick ups, & our Doctor will be here from 10 - Noon if you need any urgent care. Keep in mind, Route 3 is still closed on either side of us, so youā€™ll have to come in another way! Call if you need anything or have questions!

We will be CLOSED today due to some effects from the storm. Please stay safe & we hope everyoneā€™s damage in the community is minimal & reparable. šŸ©µ

Winter weather is coming in again! Our friends at American Association of Equine Practitioners listed out these tips to keep in mind! Give us a call if thereā€™s any concerns we can walk you through! ā„ļø

ā€œAs the cold winter weather trudges on, Dr. Sarah Reuss, AAEP Vice President and a horse owner herself, shares the following advice to keep your horse safe during extreme weather.

1. While lots of hay is ideal for horses to eat to keep warm, now is NOT the time to introduce a round bale if theyā€™ve never had access to one before. It may be more work, but keep throwing them their normal hay source, just more frequently.

2. Similarly, if your horse is not used to being in a stall, now is NOT the time. The stress of a major change and the decreased activity can be risk factors for colic. Be sure they have access to shelter, hay, and drinkable water but let them move around if they choose to do so.

3. Horses that are thin, older, or fully body clipped are those most at risk in extreme weather.

4. Well-fitting blankets are great but be sure that horses do not get sweaty under them, or that the blankets donā€™t soak through if snow or rain covered. Wet, cold and covered is worse that dry, cold and naked.

5. Some of the highest risk times are when the temperatures hover right around freezing, as that can result in sleet/freezing rain/ice that can make horses wet and therefore colder. Slippery footing is a concern, too.

6. If using electric water heaters, be sure they are functioning and not shocking horses. Take your gloves off and stick your hand in the water (briefly!!!) to double check.

7. Entice your horses to consume extra water by flavoring a bucket, adding electrolytes to their meals, or soaking their meals in warm water. If youā€™ve never fed beet pulp before, be sure to add LOTS of warm water. Dry beet pulp is a common source of choke.

8. The tips of your horses' ears can be at risk for frostbite. Putting on a waterproof, jumper-style ear bonnet or other waterproof ear cover can protect them from wind chills.

If you have any questions or concerns about keeping your horses safe this winter, contact your veterinarian for advice.ā€
