As many of you have probably seen, there has been a horrible incident with a north carolina petting zoo where 4 baby goats at an event tested positive for rabies after being ill, euthanized, and tested, so everyone at that event is having to be treated as well for potential rabies exposure. Rabies is a horrible and painful way to die with no cure. There is no living animal test to diagnose rabies, only a postmortem to diagnose it. This is why we recommend vaccination of all your outside animals for rabies once a year, because you MAY NOT SEE the rabid animal that bites them but your animals, your family, and your friends could be at risk.
Call or text to check with us if your animals are up to date or if they need to be updated and to schedule. 877 793 3383
Please remember: We do have a lot of rabies in our area.

We are checking all our clinics purchases against contaminated lot numbers to make sure all our patients are safe and haven't recieved any of the suspect adequan vials. At this time it doesnt look like we have any of our patients at risk, but we are still actively checking.

A nationwide recall has been issued for certain veterinary medications after glass fibers were discovered in some injection vials during routine testing. MORE BELOW ⬇️

Patient of the summer: Grace the goat. This poor girl got attacked by multiple coyotes over memorial day and suffered extensive wounds to the point of developing anaerobic systemic infections despite same day emergency care, drains with flushing, antibiotics, and additional treatments. She developed full body emphysema, systemic infection,wpund healing failure with necrotic tissue, early stage kidney failure and even stopped eating or drinking so she had to be hospitalized for over a week with daily wound treatments, laser, STRONG antibiotics multiple times a day, IV fluids, pain management, fly management, and then have open wounds packed and changed DAILY for 2 months by her amazing dedicated owner and weekly debridements of neceotic (dead) tissue by Dr Grillo
When we say we have AMAZING clients, we aren't kidding- Grace's mom went above and beyond to follow care directions and even made her clothes to protect her wounds as they healed after she outsmarted e-collars and bandaging. The SBF team really went all out for this sweet goat and her mom and couldnt be happier to say she is finally done her treatments and completely cleared with a clean bill of health!!
Wounds not pictured because FB gets upset about them but will be in comments

WISHING THE HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS TO DR John McLean!!!!!!

We are so blessed to have him, but also so sad to announce that next thursday will be his last one offering housecall medicine with our clinic due to demand from East Lincoln. HE ONLY HAS 2 MORE HOUSECALL APPOINTMENTS LEFT BEFORE HE LEAVES US FOR NEXT THURSDAY!!!

It has been such an honor and a blast to have him as a small part of our clinic, so join us in wishing him Farewell and Happy Birthday at the same time.

WARNING, OPEN WOUND IN VIDEO. Also. Dr G's commentary 🤦‍♀️
Our little goat friend Mr Darcy came in today bringing an additional friend, we had to evict the friend.
(Video posted with owners permission)
Remember: summer is fly season, good fly prevention is critical, swat ointment is great for around any open wounds and doesn't dissappear as fast as sprays, any wound or scratch is an opening for flies, maggots, and other friends.
If you ever see a wound on your animal, dont hesitate to let us know ASAP, best case scenario we do some telemedicine, worst case we check your animal out and get them fixed up like Mr Darcy here. Remember, some flies like bot flies, can even create their own wounds through the skin which makes warbles like this goat had.
