n but spent the majority of his life in Southern California. He attended the University of California, Santa Barbara where he earned his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Cultural Anthropology. After graduation he taught English in Beirut, Lebanon for one year before returning to Southern California. It was then that he developed a passion for horses and began to shadow a local farrier. This led to him attending Cowtown Horseshoeing School in Miles City, Montana and starting his own farrier business which operated for nearly 5 years. His desire to learn as much as possible about horses and horse care naturally led to veterinary school. Dr. Newton earned his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from the University of California, Davis. While attending UCD, he was an active member of the student chapter of the American Association of Equine Practitioners, holding positions of Co-President Elect followed by Co-
President. He was also the student representative for Platinum Performance for 2 years. Once completing his degree, Dr. Newton spent one year as an intern at Alamo Pintado Equine Medical Center, where he then remained on staff as an Associate Veterinarian for 3 years. Looking for a change of pace Dr. Newton moved to Oregon to become an Associate Veterinarian at Bend Equine Medical Center. Dr. Newton has trained and shown in the jumper circuit, along with starting many young horses. He has recently begun learning the exciting sport of sorting and team penning! To extend his knowledge of hay and equine nutrition, he also manages his family's hay farm in Tumalo.

As horse owners, we always strive to keep our equine companions healthy and comfortable. At Tumalo Ridge Equine, we understand the importance of managing joint health, especially for performance horses. That's why we want to explore two popular approaches: corticosteroid injections and regenerative therapies.

๐˜พ๐™ค๐™ง๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™˜๐™ค๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™š๐™ง๐™ค๐™ž๐™™ ๐™„๐™ฃ๐™Ÿ๐™š๐™˜๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™จ: ๐˜ผ ๐™‚๐™ค-๐™๐™ค ๐™›๐™ค๐™ง ๐™…๐™ค๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™ฉ ๐™„๐™ฃ๐™›๐™ก๐™–๐™ข๐™ข๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ
Corticosteroids are commonly used for their powerful anti-inflammatory effects. These injections help manage conditions like osteoarthritis and traumatic arthritis by reducing inflammation in the joints. Although they don't directly relieve pain, they significantly enhance your horse's comfort and mobility. By directly targeting the affected joints, these injections are particularly effective for acute inflammation, helping your horse stay at peak performance levels.

๐˜ˆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ท๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜จ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด: Corticosteroids offer quick relief from inflammation, providing immediate improvement in comfort and mobility. They are especially effective for acute conditions and can help maintain performance levels in the short term. These can be cost effective; they are well studied and reliable.

๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜จ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด: These injections can complicate conditions such as Cushing's, insulin resistance, and laminitis. Therefore, there is a limit to steroids that can be administered at one time. Overuse or frequent administration may lead to joint damage and weaken the immune response, potentially resulting in infections. Thus, while corticosteroids offer quick relief, they must be used to avoid long-term negative effects.


๐™€๐™ญ๐™ฅ๐™ก๐™ค๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™๐™š๐™œ๐™š๐™ฃ๐™š๐™ง๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ซ๐™š ๐™๐™๐™š๐™ง๐™–๐™ฅ๐™ž๐™š๐™จ: ๐˜ผ ๐™ƒ๐™ค๐™ก๐™ž๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™˜ ๐˜ผ๐™ฅ๐™ฅ๐™ง๐™ค๐™–๐™˜๐™
While corticosteroids are effective, they aren't the only option available. Regenerative therapies, such as stem cell therapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP), focus on healing and promoting long-term joint health. These treatments work by stimulating natural processes that reduce inflammation and encourage tissue repair.

๐˜ˆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ท๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜จ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด: Regenerative therapies aim to address the root cause of joint issues, offering promising results for chronic conditions. They can promote long-term joint health and potentially extend your horse's athletic years, providing a more sustainable solution.

๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜จ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด: These therapies require a commitment to the treatment protocol and patience, as results may take time to manifest. They can also be more costly and might not provide immediate relief compared to corticosteroids.


Dr. Newton evaluates each horse's unique needs to determine the best course of action. This plan could look like combining the two to reach maximum comfort for the horse or using either corticosteroids for immediate relief or regenerative therapies for long-term healing. Our goal at Tumalo Ridge Equine is to ensure your horse remains healthy and active.

At Tumalo Ridge Equine, we frequently encounter two prevalent skin tumors in horses: Melanomas and Sarcoids.
A comprehensive understanding of these tumors can be incredibly beneficial for a horse owner.

๐Œ๐ž๐ฅ๐š๐ง๐จ๐ฆ๐š๐ฌ
๐˜ž๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐโ€™๐˜ด ๐˜ˆ๐˜ง๐˜ง๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ?
Melanomas can occur in horses of any color. However, they are particularly common in gray horses, with studies indicating that as many as 80% of gray horses over the age of 15 may develop these tumors.

๐˜ž๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜‹๐˜ฐ ๐˜›๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜บ ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ณ?
Melanomas typically manifest as black, shiny lumps that may be found in specific areas such as under the tail, around the ge***al region, or near the eyes. Their location can sometimes complicate detection.

๐˜Ž๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ & ๐˜›๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต:
These tumors generally grow slowly and may not cause any immediate discomfort to the horse. Nevertheless, if they become enlarged or ulcerated, treatment can become quite complex. It is important to note that regrowth is common after treatment, and ongoing monitoring is necessary. The most common treatment is surgical removal when possible.

๐’๐š๐ซ๐œ๐จ๐ข๐๐ฌ
๐˜Š๐˜ข๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ:
Sarcoid are the most frequently diagnosed skin tumors in horses and are associated with the bovine papilloma virus. Their link to this virus suggests a viral origin, leading to persistent and challenging cases.

๐˜›๐˜บ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด:
A sarcoid can be classified into several types, each with distinct characteristics. UC Davis states that there are 6 different types, but we have listed the 4 most common types:

๐™Š๐™˜๐™˜๐™ช๐™ก๐™ฉ:
These tumors are subtle and may present as areas of hair loss or changes in coat texture. They can be easily overlooked, making regular examinations critical.
๐™‘๐™š๐™ง๐™ง๐™ช๐™˜๐™ค๐™จ๐™š:
These appear as gray, scaly, warty lesions that grow slowly. They are generally less aggressive but can still pose issues if left untreated.
๐™‰๐™ค๐™™๐™ช๐™ก๐™–๐™ง:
Firm, round lumps that develop beneath the skin. These can be mistaken for other types of growth if not properly evaluated.
๐™๐™ž๐™—๐™ง๐™ค๐™—๐™ก๐™–๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™˜:
These are fleshy tumors that tend to bleed easily and can attract flies, leading to additional complications such as infection.

๐˜‰๐˜ฆ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ & ๐˜›๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต:
The behavior of sarcoid varies considerably between individuals, and as such, treatment must be tailored to the specific type and behavior of the sarcoid. There is no textbook on treating sarcoids, since they can be really challenging to treat. Early detection is crucial, as it can significantly influence treatment outcomes. Options for managing melanomas include cryotherapy (freezing the tumor) or the use of cisplatin (a chemotherapy agent).

Both melanomas and sarcoid demonstrate a wide range of behavior and growth patterns in equines. Regular health checks and prompt intervention when abnormalities are detected can greatly improve the prognosis.
Staying informed about these conditions and maintaining routine visits with Dr. Newton will ensure that you provide the best care for your horses.

Joint injections are a common and effective way to manage joint pain, improve mobility, and maintain your horse's overall health, no matter if your horse is a high-performance athlete or a beloved senior companion.

The phrase โ€˜joint injectionโ€™ can have various interpretations depending on who you ask.
There are three types of routine joint therapies available for horses. Joint injections are a veterinary procedure used to deliver medication directly to a horse's joint. This targeted approach helps address inflammation, pain, and other issues within the joint itself. There are several types of joint injections that your veterinarian might consider, depending on your horseโ€™s specific needs.

These injections are administered directly into the joint space. They are highly effective for delivering medications like corticosteroids or hyaluronic acid, which can reduce inflammation and improve joint lubrication.

Although not directly injected into the joint, IV injections can improve overall joint health. For example, systemic administration of certain medications can help reduce joint inflammation and promote healing.

These injections involve administering medication into the muscle, from where it is absorbed into the bloodstream. They are typically used for long-acting medications that help in managing joint health over time.

Dr. Newton will consider various factors when recommending joint injections, such as your horseโ€™s activity level, any existing soundness issues, and the number of affected joints. The goal is to create a comprehensive care plan that enhances your horse's performance, prolongs their athletic career, and provides comfort, especially for older horses.

Understanding joint injections and how they fit into your horseโ€™s overall health strategy is crucial. By working closely with Dr. Newton, you can ensure that your horse receives the best possible care, helping them stay active, comfortable, and happy for years to come.
