Caring for a horse with a long-term illness or injury requires both financial commitment and practical planning. Veterinary bills, medications, specialized feed, and management adjustments can add up quickly, so creating a clear financial plan helps owners prepare for ongoing expenses. Practical management—such as adjusting your horse's workload, providing appropriate turnout, and maintaining a consistent routine—can support your horse's well-being. Work closely with your veterinarian to be sure your horse receives individualized treatment.During this Ask TheHorse Live event, two veterinarians answer listener questions about managing horses with chronic illness and injury. This event is sponsored by CareCredit. About the Experts: Nathan Canada, DVM, MS, Dipl.

In this week's Digging In, graduates of veterinary medicine toss their graduation cap in the air and head into their long sought-after career, many are choosing urban clinics who specialize in small animal care, over rural, mostly mixed animal practices.

We've got a three-peat favorite back on the mic—Dr. Karl Jandrey, DVM, DACVECC, emergency & critical care specialist at UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. In this “Ask the Vet” deep dive, Dr. Jandrey breaks down how heart disease shows up in pets, what to watch for at home, and what your vet does first in the ER.You'll learn the stealth early signs in dogs (like true exercise intolerance vs. stubbornness), when coughing and increased breathing effort mean “go now,” and why small breeds often face mitral valve disease while large breeds are at risk for dilated cardiomyopathy (including the grain-free/taurine connection). We also cover arrhythmias (like AFib) and dramatic collapses, the core ER toolkit (oxygen, ultrasound, diuretics), and practical home monitoring (why ≤30 breaths/min at rest matters).For cats, Dr. Jandrey explains hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)—why it's so hard to spot, the realities of sudden distress or clots (ATE), and what treatment and prognosis can look like. Plus: a quick detour into exciting oncology advances (hello, Lola the Golden Retriever!) and a feel-good moment with Dr. Jandrey's lab, Danson, a veteran blood donor.Send us your questions for a future Ask the Vet!Highlights / What You'll Learn:- Early, often-missed signs of cardiac disease in dogs- Mitral valve disease vs. dilated cardiomyopathy—who's at risk and why- ER playbook: oxygen, Lasix (furosemide), rhythm control, point-of-care ultrasound- Home check: how to count resting respiratory rate and what numbers matter- Cats & HCM: silent disease, clots, emergency steps, and tough decisions- Meds 101: pimobendan, digoxin, diuretics—where they fit- Diet note: taurine and the grain-free discussionWe also briefly discuss:pet heart disease, dog coughing heart, resting respiratory rate dog, dilated cardiomyopathy dogs, mitral valve disease small dogs, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy cats, cat blood clot back legs, veterinary ER, pimobendan for dogs, taurine deficiency grain-freehttps://www.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/faculty/karl-e-jandrey--What started during the COVID-19 lockdown with one baby gorilla at the Cleveland Zoo has grown into a channel loved by animal fans around the world.

Plus, insights on effective periodontal treatments. What You'll Learn: ✅ Effective techniques for extracting maxillary lateral incisors in large breed dogs. ✅ How to manage cases where a root tip goes into the mandibular canal. ✅ Tips for extracting the apical root of 310 and 410 in small dogs. ✅ When to use envelope flaps versus releasing flaps in extractions. ✅ Best practices for removing lower canines in cats with minimal bone support. ✅ The efficacy of products like Clindoral and the benefits of using hyaluronic acid (PerioVive) in periodontal treatments. Key Takeaways: ✅ For difficult maxillary lateral incisor extractions, use a combination of luxators and elevators, progressing slowly and applying consistent pressure. ✅ If a root tip enters the mandibular canal, prioritize patient safety and refer the case unless you have advanced training. ✅ When extracting the apical root of 310 and 410 in small dogs, section the tooth and use gentle elevation techniques to avoid fractures. ✅ Hyaluronic acid (PerioVive) is highly effective for promoting reattachment in periodontal pockets after closed root planing. ✅ Surgical extraction times can vary, but with experience, a fractured maxillary canine extraction in a large dog can be completed efficiently. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don't miss the opportunity to enhance your veterinary dentistry skills!

Mare reproductive challenges can range from endometritis to ovarian irregularities such as hemorrhagic anovulatory follicles, ovarian hematomas, and persistent corpora lutea, all of which can disrupt normal cycles and fertility. Older mares often face anatomical complications that increase contamination and impair conception. Hormonal tumors such as granulosa-theca cell tumors might spur erratic behaviors and cycle abnormalities, while pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID, formerly Cushing's disease) can further dampen reproductive performance by causing abnormal cycles, anovulation, and recurring endometritis. Vigilant diagnostics—including ultrasound, hormone panels, and uterine evaluation—are essential in identifying and managing these issues efficiently. During this Ask TheHorse Live Q&A two experts answer your questions about common mare reproductive problems. This episode is sponsored by Equithrive. About the Experts: Carleigh Fedorka, PhD, assistant professor of equine reproductive physiology at Colorado State University, in Fort Collins, is a global expert in reproductive immunology. She has focused her research on understanding the relationship between the immune system and the reproductive tract, evaluating the efficacy of treatments on various reproductive disorders, and discovering biomarkers for reproductive health. Fedorka earned her BS degree from St. Lawrence University, in Canton, New York, and her PhD in Veterinary Sciences from the University of Kentucky, in Lexington, after working in the industry as a manager of a commercial Thoroughbred breeding farm. She maintains a presence in the equine industry by retraining countless off the track Thoroughbreds, including her personal event horses Judge Johnny (JJ) and Strike Two (Jeter). In her spare time, she enjoys fly fishing, spending time with her husband and their dog, and cheering on the Buffalo Bills.Jenna Ward, DVM, Dipl. ACT, is a clinician and lecturer in large animal reproduction at the University of Pennsylvania's New Bolton Center, in Kennett Square. She earned her DVM at Texas A&M University, in College Station. Ward's research includes stallion reproductive health and genetic-related embryonic loss in horses.

Dr. Ewing practices at Animal Dermatology Clinic in Pasadena, CA and has previously done research on venomous insect testing and desensitization.
