This advice is from a post by Dr. Ruth Sobek, a colleague in California. I'm ordering a few for myself to see how well they work, and how quiet they are.

"Buy these inexpensive pet clippers, and train your horses to tolerate them, so they don’t commit su***de when I need to clip hair away from a wound to treat it, OK?
These days fewer people clip for shows, so horses rarely get acclimated to the buzzing and the sensation any more. When your horse gets a wound, you can clip the hair around it for a better look and to clean it better. Then when you send me a photo I can actually tell you what I think about it instead of guessing!

Using this product,your pet doesn't feel startled by the sound of the clippers,and it can take off all the excess bushy hair so cooler,relatively quite and does not stress your fur baby,so your pets will not get nervous.

A possible explanation for the increase in the number of horses coughing the last several days? Absolutely.

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is recommending Wisconsinites reduce their time outdoors Tuesday, June 3 and into Wednesday, June 4 due to ongoing air quality advisories resulting from Canadian wildfire smoke.

Many of you know Dr. Huges. The more we find out, the better we'll be able to manage this.

What a week! Our very own Dr. Bill Stone spent this past week watching over the thoroughbreds at Churchill Downs. Rounding out the week, he consulted with the Regulatory Team of the KHRGC for the 151st Kentucky Derby. Fortunately for us, next week he travels back to Texas to work on your, equally important, horses! Safe travels home, Dr. Stone!

One of the fun things about my career has been watching the introduction of new diagnostic tests to help try to figure out what’s wrong with a particular horse.  From MRI to CT, from bone scans to digital radiography, and from genetic tests on hair to testing a horse’s blood for a newly discove...
