At Benchmark Animal Hospital, we know how important it is to keep your horse feeling comfortable and competing confidently. That's where joint injections can play a huge role in maintaining joint health and longevity. 🐎💪

Why consider joint injections?

• Improve comfort and mobility

• Reduce inflammation within the joint

• Support cartilage health and slow degeneration

• Help your athlete perform and recover better

Whether your horse is showing subtle performance changes or has a known joint condition, early intervention can make all the difference in their success and long-term comfort.

Our veterinarian will evaluate your horse, discuss the best options for their specific needs, and create a plan to keep them looking sharp in the pen! ⭐

📞 Call us anytime to schedule an evaluation

🐾 June's Story 🐾

June suffered a femur fracture after being kicked by a horse. Due to the severity of the injury, surgical repair was performed using a bone plate and screws to properly align and stabilize the fracture.

She is now recovering and being closely monitored as she begins the healing process. We're proud of how strong June has been and grateful her family trusted us with her care. 💙

⚠️ Rabies Awareness Reminder for Oklahoma Pet Owners ⚠️

We want to share an important reminder about the very real risk of rabies, even when incidents happen outside our immediate area. A recent case involved a kitten that died after a skunk attack and tested positive for rabies — a tragic but preventable outcome.

👉 Read the article here:

https://r.smartbrief.com/resp/uzmRCBoujsDHbbyWCieGlOBWcNHrNZ?format=multipart

🦨 Why this matters in Oklahoma:

• Rabies is present in Oklahoma, especially in wildlife such as skunks, raccoons, bats, and foxes.

• Rabies is fatal once symptoms appear, but it is preventable with vaccination.

• Unvaccinated pets exposed to wildlife may face quarantine or euthanasia due to public health laws.

🐾 What you can do:

✔ Keep all dogs, cats, and ferrets current on rabies vaccinations

✔ Avoid contact with wildlife and discourage pets from interacting with wild animals

✔ If your pet is bitten or scratched by a wild animal, seek veterinary care immediately

Please help us spread awareness and keep Oklahoma pets and families safe. 💙

🦷🐾 Your Dog's Smile Matters More Than You Think! 🐾🦷

Did you know that over 80% of dogs show signs of dental disease by age 3?

Regular dental cleanings aren't just about fresh breath—they're about your pet's overall health!

✨ Why Dentals Are So Important:

• Prevents painful gum disease

• Protects the heart, liver, and kidneys from bacteria spread

• Helps keep teeth strong and healthy

• Allows your vet to catch problems early

A professional cleaning under anesthesia lets us remove tartar where a toothbrush just can't reach. Your pup deserves a mouth that feels as good as it looks!

If your dog has bad breath, yellow teeth, drooling, or difficulty chewing, it might be time to schedule a dental checkup.

❤️ Healthy teeth = a happy, healthier pup!
