Thanks for the helping hand! 😂 This little buddy decided the Monday afternoon cleanup crew needed a little supervision.

And honestly, we’ll take all the help we can get, even if it comes with a few hoofprints and a lot of attitude. 🐴 🧹

Some cases require more than answers. They require patience, collaboration, and heart.

Dr. Christine brings all three to every patient she sees, especially the rare and complex ones. We’re honored to help horses and owners navigate even the most unusual medical journeys.

Some friendships don’t require words... just soft noses, slow blinks, and a little trust. From first brushes to first rides, there’s a special kind of magic in the way kids and horses connect.

Throwback to a very special case, close to all of our hearts: those twin foals Tennessee Equine Hospital helped welcome last month. 💙

From a rare start to a strong recovery, it’s been incredible to watch both babies continue to thrive. Seeing them now, healthy, growing, and feeding side by side, is exactly why our team does what we do.

A reminder that with quick response, dedicated care, and close follow-up, even the rarest cases can have a beautiful outcome.

Happy Fourth of July from your friends at Tennessee Equine Hospital East! 🇺🇸🐴

As you celebrate today with family and friends, don’t forget that fireworks can be a huge source of anxiety for many horses. The loud noises, bright flashes, and unfamiliar activity can lead to stress and increase the risk of injury if horses become frightened.

Planning ahead and providing a calm, familiar environment can go a long way in helping your horse feel safe during the holiday. A little extra preparation today can make for a much more peaceful Fourth of July weekend.

We hope your holiday is filled with celebration, gratitude, and safe memories. And as always, if your horse needs us, our emergency team is here for you 24/7.

Temperatures are climbing to nearly 100 degrees in Tennessee this week. You must know these signs of a heat emergency in your horse! 🐴🌡️

Warning signs of heat stress or heat stroke include:
🌟 Heavy or no sweating
🌟 Rapid or labored breathing
🌟 Elevated heart rate that doesn't recover
🌟 Weakness, lethargy, or reluctance to move
🌟 Stumbling, muscle tremors, or collapse

If you notice these signs, move your horse to a shaded area, begin cooling with cool (not ice-cold) water, offer fresh water if they are able to drink, and contact your veterinarian immediately.

The best prevention is plenty of fresh water, shade, good ventilation, and limiting exercise during the hottest hours of the day. A little preparation can make all the difference during a Tennessee heat wave. ☀️ 💚

Fireworks may be fun for us, but they can be super stressful for our horses. 🎆🐴

As we approach the Fourth of July, here are a few easy ways to help keep your horses safe and calm:
✨ Stick to their normal routine.
✨ Check fences, gates, and stalls for security.
✨ Provide plenty of hay and fresh water.
✨ Keep horses with familiar companions when possible.
✨ Play soft music or run a fan to help mask loud noises.

If your horse has a history of anxiety during fireworks, reach out to your veterinarian ahead of time to discuss a plan. Some horses may benefit from medication, but it's important to have that conversation before the fireworks begin.

From all of us at Tennessee Equine Hospital East, we wish you and your horses a safe, happy, and healthy holiday! If an emergency arises, we're here when you need us.
