✨ Dr Rebecca Caslick – Veterinarian, BSc BVMS ✨

Our dedicated repro vet, Dr Bec, is the calm, steady presence so many of our clients know and trust.

Kind-hearted, incredibly thorough, and quietly brilliant at what she does. Bec is known for her gentle approach and her commitment to ensuring every horse receives tailored, thoughtful care.

She has a strong clinical interest in equine reproduction, supporting breeders through every stage with precision and care, while also being available for general practice and bringing that same thorough, considered approach to every consult.

Bec also has a genuine passion for the maintenance and performance management of eventing horses. She regularly travels interstate to attend three-day events in support of Western Australian riders. As an FEI Level 1 Official Veterinarian, she plays an important role in supporting the eventing industry in this capacity.

Behind the scenes, it’s careful planning, clear communication and doing things properly — not rushing the process. That’s exactly what Bec is known for.

🗓 Availability:
Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays. For in-house and on farm consultations.

During repro season (September–December), she is often out on the road providing routine stud work and is available for in-clinic and on farm consults on Tuesdays.

If you’d like to book an appointment with Dr Bec, please contact our team. We’re here to support you and your horses every step of the way.

This month’s blog talks Back pain in sport horses: what every owner should know.

Just like human athletes, horses can suffer from back pain especially those in demanding disciplines like eventing, showjumping, and dressage. Horses will manifest it through subtle changes in performance or behaviour.

Read this blog to help you recognise the signs of pain in your horse.

January in Perth is not a gentle summer month. Extended heatwaves, hot easterly winds and minimal overnight cooling create sustained stress on horses.

January heat in Perth places real, cumulative strain on horses. Hydration, feeding, and workload management need to be intentional, not reactive. Subtle changes matter, and early adjustments can prevent serious problems.

Read our blog for some advice to get you through the summer heat.

Such an important message. Thank you Dr Annemarie and Ascot Equine Vets for sharing this story and raising awareness about keeping your vets safe🙏

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DR6tVMEPK/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Have you picked up this months Hoofbeats yet? It features Dr Annemarie’s journey following her accident last year, when she was kicked in the face by a horse. Her hope in telling this story is to raise awareness around veterinary safety and encourage the horse community to think about how we can all help to ensure vets and other equine professionals make it home safely at the end of each day.

Hoofbeats is available through newsagents, selected saddlery and stockfeed stores, or online at hoofbeats.com.au.

Thank you to Hoofbeats for helping to shine a light on this important topic. 💙
