This has been one HOT summer 🥵. With the heat indexes as high as they have been, heat stroke can be a real risk for our horses. The best way to treat heat stroke is to PREVENT it from occurring in the first place - This veterinary podcast has some great info for horse owners to avoid heat stress and some basics about making sure heat stress does not escalate to heat stroke.

Our recent rain has been great for the fields, but it is also looking like hoof abscess weather! Our colleague made this great video about applying a hoof bandage. This is an important skill for any horse owner to have!

🎉🥳 Exciting news from Pinewood Equine! 🥳🎉

If you’ve seen her recently, you are probably already aware: 🤰🏻 Dr. Lindberg and her family are excited to be welcoming Pinewood Equine's “tiniest assistant” in mid-September. 🎀 (Yes, they are very aware they will inevitably be in the market for a pony with a second little girl in the family. 😆)

Dr. Lindberg will be on Maternity Leave from mid-September through Thanksgiving. Dr. Liu and the rest of our team will be continuing to provide the best care to our patients while Dr. Lindberg is out, along with the assistance of our relief vet, 🌟 Dr. Julia Miller 🌟. We are so fortunate to have Dr. Miller joining us for extra support for both routine and emergency coverage this fall - we will be introducing her in the coming weeks so please stay tuned! Watch your email for our newsletter to get all the info first.

Vet student social media takeover! Alyssa, 4th year student from LMU, is taking over our social media for the next few weeks to share her experiences with you!
*~*
I got to see some really cool cases on my first week on rotation with Pinewood Equine! One horse had a corneal ulcer that was not healing. First, we performed an auriculopalpebral nerve block to numb motor function for better manipulation of the eyelids. We then used a topical anesthetic to numb the surface of the eye. Next, I took a cotton swab and gently rubbed over the ulcer to debride it, which helps the healing process. In another case, we performed a standing sinus lavage on a gelding who recently had an extraction of 209 (1st molar on left upper arcade), but still had a smelly nose! And of course, we had a number of routine dentals this week during which we performed a thorough oral examination and then floated all of the sharp enamel points.

A face familiar to many of you will be joining us in the truck for the next month! We are excited and proud to welcome back Alyssa Jones, former Pinewood Equine assistant, now senior veterinary student at Lincoln Memorial University. Alyssa is with us for one of her many clinical rotations that she will complete over the next year as a 4th year veterinary student. You can watch this page over the next few weeks as Alyssa shares some of her experiences with you.

A message from Alyssa:

Hello, my name is Alyssa Jones! I’m a 4th year veterinary student from Lincoln Memorial University. During my time in school, I have found a love for all aspects of veterinary medicine. I am now looking forward to focusing on my passion for equine medicine. I am excited to have the opportunity to be part of the Pinewood Equine team for the next month. Outside of veterinary medicine, I spend my time enjoying my horses and mini donkeys and spending time with my family.

PSA: Time to review what to do if you have an *emergency*! (As we go into summer vacation months, this is important info for you to share with your farm sitter!) Daytime or night time, weekend or weekday, if you need to talk to a doctor right away, you have 3 simple steps:
Step 1: ☎️ CALL ☎️ our main number (856-506-9200) and press 1, as prompted (Don't text, don't facebook message, don't email or submit website requests.). There will be a brief transfer time with hold music for 1 minute - this can feel long when you are worried, but hang in there! 🙉
Step 2: 👂Listen carefully to instructions - If you are asked to leave a voicemail, you MUST leave a voicemail for the doctor on call to receive a notification!
Step 3: 🙈You will receive a call back in 20 minutes - if your barn has bad reception, step outside. Make sure your phone is not on silent!

We may use our text app if our hands are full to let you know we got your message.

Last weekend Dr. Liu and Aren volunteered at the Gloucester County 4-H Equine Symposium. 4-H students had the opportunity to get up close and personal with the horse’s mouth thanks to our equine volunteers! They got to learn the importance of a good oral exam and all about the tools we use to accomplish that. Thanks to everyone at Gloucester County 4-H for a great event!

Did you “nose” the answer to our trivia question?

1-2-3
The foal should be standing within one hour, nursing within two hours, and the mare should pass the whole placenta within 3 hours of birth!

Did you get it right? Let us know!

23/01/2024

The foals are coming! It’s the cutest time of year - what are the timing landmarks anyone expecting a foal should know? I’ll give you a hint - we call it the 1-2-3 rule!

Thank you everyone for attending our seminar this week! We squeezed over 70 people into the 4H auditorium to enjoy some Olive Garden and learn about caring for the senior horse. We gave away some fabulous prizes, like little buckets to make your horse a nice warm “sweet tea” in the winter and cozy gloves so your hands don’t get cold doing it. We had a great time and hope you did too!
