USDA has confirmed the sample from a cattle ranch near La Pryor, Texas, is screwworm. A threat the U.S. hasn't faced for more than 60 years, NWS is not a disease or food safety concern for consumers.

Your horse deserves experienced hands β€” and you deserve to not drive two hours to find them. 🐴

When a horse needs hospitalization, the difference between good and great comes down to experience. Stalls and IV lines matter β€” but so does the judgment that comes from years of large animal practice.

MVVS has a brand new 5,000 sq ft haul-in facility right here in Livingston β€” stalls, monitoring, IV access β€” backed by a team of experienced large animal veterinarians who have seen and handled cases that many practices refer out.

Colic. Wound care. Post-surgical recovery. Mares that need monitoring. Foals that aren't right. We can handle it here.

What are some creative ways you've milked out a mare? Drop them in the comments β€” we'd love to hear. 🐴

Here's a trick we've been using for years: grab a 60 mL syringe and a pocket knife. Cut the tip off the syringe, clean the teat, flip the plunger in backwards, and you've got yourself a surprisingly effective milking tool. Free. Takes 30 seconds to make. Works great.

Simple solutions are often the best ones. πŸ₯Ύ

Earlier this week, we got to do one of our favorite things β€” talk to the next generation. πŸŽ“

Park County Cultivating Careers Day brought us together with Park High School students for a day of hands-on exploration. Blood smears, ultrasound, equine dental tools β€” the questions these kids asked were genuinely impressive.

Huge thanks to the Montana Chamber of Commerce for putting it together and to Frontline Ag Solutions and RDO Equipment for their sponsorship.

If even one student leaves thinking about a career in large animal medicine β€” that's a win. πŸ₯Ύ

We know. It sounds like voodoo. 🐴

But watch all 3 of these videos before you make up your mind.

The first is a dummy foal β€” down, unresponsive, not nursing, failing to thrive - often the result of a dystocia or other event that caused the foal to be without oxygen for a period of time. The next two are the same foal after the Madigan Squeeze was administered. A rope. Gentle pressure around the chest. A few minutes of patience.

That's it.

The Madigan Squeeze mimics the pressure of the birth canal and can trigger the neurological "switch" that some foals miss during delivery. We don't fully understand everything behind why it works β€” but we've seen it work, our clients have seen it work, and it costs absolutely nothing to try.

It is VERY important to note that the Madigan Squeeze is only one tool that aided in this foal's success. Thanks to a diligent owner and her willingness to syringe feed colostrum every hour until the foal could suckle, the foal PASSED HER IgG TEST with flying colors and is set up to enter her early life with a buck and a kick!

If you have a dummy foal or a dull newborn calf that isn't right, call us before you give up. We'll walk you through it.

One week ago we opened these doors β€” and the community has not let us catch our breath. πŸ—οΈ

Scouring calves on IV fluids, horses hospitalized and recovering, bulls semen tested, joint injections, and somewhere in the middle of all of it β€” a heifer decided to test the structural integrity of one of our hinges. She almost had us, but we will call this round a draw.

This is real large animal medicine happening in a facility built for it, right here in south-central Montana. We are so proud of what this first week looked like and so grateful to the clients who trusted us with their animals right out of the gate.

We are open. We are ready. Bring us your hardest cases. πŸ₯Ύ
