Gold Coast was honored to be asked once again to present to Diggity Dogs 4-H Club at the Extension Center in Torrington about veterinary medicine. This year, we brought two cats from Rose Hope Animal Refuge to be spayed and neutered with the students. It was a wonderful experience all around! Some comments from the attendees:

Mary W said "I really liked the opportunity to observe two procedures that most of our animals have gotten. I also really liked how the veterinarian gave us the ability to see what it's really like to be a vet. The veterinarian was so knowledgeable and open to our questions and her tech was very nice."

Sadie P said I absolutely loved the experience that Dr. Saria and her assistant gave! My favorite part was probably when they went through the anatomy of the cat they were suturing. The pair were super friendly and answered everyone’s questions, I will not soon forget this experience!

It is a joy to share this marvolous vocation with eager youngsters!

Important update from Dr Saria

Very few cases of avian flu have been documented in cats, but the cases that have occurred have been severe, and cat owners should take preventive measures, says veterinarian Stephen Cole, director of the Clinical Infectious Disease Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania's Veterinary Hospital....

Hello Dr. Saria and Staff,

I wanted to take this time to sincerely thank you for your care of Luke through his many years. Also, for your support of me in making a difficult decision in deciding the timing of the end of his time here. Thank you!! He was a wonderful dog in every way! I was blessed to have had in for as many years as I had. He will always be in my heart along with the others who went before him.

Thank you for bringing him home to me, (in another form), and for the paw print and cutting his nails. That was so appreciated!!

I have decided to give another dog in need a good home (as you know there are many) and will be contacting you for an appointment. While I grieve the loss of Luke, the dog lover in me wants to have a dog to love....There is no replacement of him, but room in my heart to care for another...

God bless and keep you as you do His work in caring for His creatures....It is a special calling...
E.T.

In December 2022 my (Dr Saria’s) own dog came inside with a ruptured cruicate ligament. Shortly thereafter she tore her other side as well. Both of these injuries often result in the lifetime of lameness, pain and chronic medication. While surgery is often curative, and I know how to do it and could have done it for her, sometimes surgery can go drastically wrong. Instead, I elected to do stem Cell regenerative therapy created by Ardent Animal Health in my own Gold Coast laboratory and in my own surgery clinic for my personal best friend. I injected her first knee and saved the cells, and when she tore her second knee, I was able just to retrieve those cells and inject her second knee. This is what she looks like two years later. Absolutely no medication’s and no restrictions! What a joy!!

I received several messages asking what i actually did the last week, so i decided to share my adventure! I went on two common border horse rides in Hawick (as well as a few other things)
some history and context:

“A common riding is an equestrian tradition mainly in the Scottish Borders in Scotland.[1] Male and female riders ride out of the town and along its borders to commemorate the practice from 13th and 15th centuries where there were frequent raids on the Anglo-Scottish border known as the Border Reivers and also to commemorate the Scottish defeat at the Battle of Flodden.[1] Today, the common ridings, rideouts, or riding of the marches continue to be annual events celebrated in the summer in the Borders of Scotland. Each town may have many rideouts over their festival week, usually having one on festival day. Some towns re-enact historic 'common ridings' – although many others have well-established 'festival rides' that are cemented within their town's history.”
“ In Hawick, (pronounced Ho-oink) they celebrate the capture of an English Flag in 1514 by the youth of Hawick at a place called Hornshole and The Cornet’s Lass ‘busses’ the Flag by tying ribbons of blue and gold to the head of the staff of the flag. In Annan, there is the ‘Hole in the Hedge’ ceremony. It is claimed that in days gone by, a boy was pushed through the smithy’s window to look out for approaching marauders. Each year, a different local boy is chosen to be ‘skelped’ through the hedge to mark both the site and the tradition.”

Thank you to everyone for allowing me to take a vacation. Scotland is fantastic, but one aspect in particular is amazing. They are sooo dog friendly. This is a small cafe which caters to both humans and pups!
Although i had a great time, i can’t wait to see you all again 🥰
