On January 4, the first foal of the 2023 foaling season arrived at the Equine Medical Center for emergency treatment. Mom Jennie, a seven-year-old black donkey jenny, arrived with her twelve-hour-old filly, who has since been named Sparkles! Jennie, a livestock guardian donkey, was found to have a retained placenta and was suffering from hypertriglyceridemia – an overabundance of fat in her blood, mainly due to high levels of triglycerides. Sparkles, weighing in at 44 pounds, was initially bright and responsive but found to be suffering from a failure of passive transfer (FPT) – lacking proteins called antibodies found in the first milk or colostrum, which would, under normal circumstances, protect her from bacteria and viruses. On January 9, after just a few days of treatment, Jennie and baby Sparkles were ready to return home! #donkey #foall #foalingseason
After many years of planning and waiting the Indoor Arena Project is finally underway. More to come on this exciting project in 2023! #vtemc #vmcvm #equine #indoorarena #horses #vetmed #equinevet #construction #comingsoon

Is your horse ready for the show season? EMC’s Athletic Wellness Program is proving to be very popular! Two registered Connemara ponies came to the EMC last week to go through our comprehensive Athletic Wellness Program; MLC Invictis, (stable name “Lark”) a rising 3-year-old dun gelding and Oakfield’s Sienna Sparrow, (stable name “Sparrow”) a rising 6 year old, gray mare. This program provides owners with an individual base line assessment of athletic health to assist with a suitable training program for peak athletic performance or in the case of “Lark” to make sure that he is physically ready to be started under saddle. Follow the process through the sports medicine examination by Dr. Maureen Kelleher, Clinical Assistant Professor of Sports Medicine and Surgery, Internal Medicine review by Dr. Krista Estell, Assistant Professor of Equine Internal Medicine and podiatry review by Paul Goodness, Certified Journeyman Farrier. The program covers, internal medicine review, weight, heart rate assessment during exercise, pre (CBC, chemistry) and post exercise bloodwork (muscle enzymes), dynamic orthopedic exam and front feet balance radiographs and Metron DVM front feet digital photographs (precise measurement hoof tracking). This information is gathered into a digital “package” that you can share with your primary care veterinarian, farrier and trainer! For more information, please contact Kathy Ashland in the EMC admissions office at (703) 771 6875.
