🐴✨ Winter is Coming: Don’t Neglect Your Horse’s Dental Health! ✨🐴

As we head into winter, it’s crucial to prioritize your horse’s dental care! 🦷❄️ Here’s why:

Prevent Health Issues: Regular dental check-ups can help prevent colic, weight loss, and behavioral changes.

Optimal Nutrition: With colder weather, horses rely more on hay and feed. Proper dental care ensures they can chew effectively and maintain their weight.

Watch for Signs: Look out for quidding (dropping food), foul breath, or resistance to the bit. These could indicate dental problems that need attention!

Professional Care: Schedule a dental exam and floating with your vet. It’s a proactive step for your horse’s comfort and health.

Behavioral Benefits: A pain-free horse is a happy horse! Good dental health leads to better performance and a stronger bond with your rider.

Don’t wait until it’s too late! 🕒 Schedule your horse’s dental check-up today and ensure they stay healthy and happy this winter!

🐾 Why Add Camelina Oil to Your Pet's Diet This Fall & Winter? 🌿
As the temperatures drop, it's essential to keep our furry friends healthy and happy! One great way to support their well-being during the colder months is by adding Camelina oil to their diet. Here’s why it’s a fantastic choice:

Rich in Omega Fatty Acids: Camelina oil is packed with Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, which are crucial for maintaining healthy skin and a shiny coat. This is especially important in winter when dry air can lead to skin issues.

Supports Joint Health: The anti-inflammatory properties of camelina oil can help alleviate joint pain and stiffness, making it a great supplement for older pets or those with arthritis.

Boosts Immune Function: With the change in seasons, our pets can be more susceptible to illness. The antioxidants in camelina oil help strengthen their immune system, keeping them healthy and active.

Sustainable Choice: Camelina is a sustainable crop, making it an eco-friendly option for pet owners who care about the environment.

At Gateway Veterinary Services, we offer high-quality camelina oil supplements tailored for your pets. Ask us about incorporating this beneficial oil into your pet's diet today!

Today, we assisted a bovine patient with draining an abscess. Please note: the following video contains graphic content related to veterinary procedures. Viewer discretion is advised.

Abscesses can occur due to infections, injuries, or foreign bodies, leading to painful swelling. If left untreated, they can cause serious health issues, including systemic infection. Draining the abscess helps relieve pain, prevent further complications, and promote healing.

Our team is committed to providing the best care for all animals, ensuring they receive the treatment they need to recover effectively.
