This episode examines how heat stress affects water intake in dairy cows—and why farms must prepare their watering systems for increasingly hot weather.A review of studies from 1985–2024 found that Holstein cows producing roughly 65–70 pounds of milk averaged about 24 gallons of water per day under thermoneutral conditions. During heat stress, intake increased by approximately 10 liters, or 2–3 gallons, per cow per day. Each one-unit increase in the temperature-humidity index was associated with another 1.5 liters of water intake. Although heat-stressed cows produce less milk, they drink more because the additional water supports evaporative cooling and body-temperature regulation.Data from the University of Minnesota's dairy herd revealed a more complicated picture. smaXtec sensors showed that cows averaged around 23 gallons per day, but estimated intake declined during summer. Possible reasons include warmer drinking water, pasture water access, competition at waterers, and changes in drinking behavior. Cows generally drank only four or five times per day, consuming roughly 14–20 liters at each visit. Peak drinking also shifted from midafternoon in winter to around 7 p.m. in summer, often after milking.These patterns highlight the importance of examining when cows drink—not just daily totals. Farms should ensure adequate water flow, tank capacity, access, and cool water during peak-use periods. Sensor readings are most valuable when compared with each cow's normal behavior and interpreted alongside weather, milk production, rumination, health events, and management changes.The central message is that water intake can be a useful indicator of heat stress, but unexpected changes should prompt investigation rather than an automatic conclusion. As extreme heat becomes more common, dairy water systems must be designed for peak demand rather than historical averages.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory 

Every summer, veterinarians issue the same warning: never leave your pet alone in a parked car, even for a few minutes. What many people don't realize is just how quickly temperatures inside a vehicle can become dangerous, even on days that don't feel extremely hot. Heatstroke can happen fast and can lead to serious injury or even death for our furry family members. Heather Quilty, Registered Veterinary Technician and Program Manager of Clinical Learning with VetStrategy, spoke to Ken Connors.

Brad shares preliminary results from a University of Minnesota study examining feed intake, methane emissions, and feeding behavior in Holstein and crossbred dairy heifers. Using precision feeders, methane-monitoring equipment, and activity sensors, the research team compared Holsteins with ProCROSS and GrazeCross heifers.The early findings show that methane production generally increased with feed intake. Smaller GrazeCross heifers consumed less feed and produced less methane and carbon dioxide, while ProCROSS heifers had the highest feed intake. However, methane produced per unit of dry matter intake did not differ significantly among the breed groups.Brad also discusses how often heifers visited the feed bunk, how much time they spent eating, and what sensor data revealed about rumination and activity. These preliminary results highlight how body size, breed, and feeding behavior may influence heifer management and environmental efficiency.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory 

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Jessica Sperber, Beef Technical Services Manager on the ruminant nutrition team at Merck Animal Health. This episode of Have You Herd? was developed by the AABP Nutrition Committee. If you are an AABP member interested in cattle nutrition, consider joining our Nutrition Committee by going to this link. Sperber reviews the main active ingredients in implants and how they work inside the animal and when they should be used during the production cycle. She also reviews the variables that matter most when selecting an implant. Veterinarians should be aware of FDA regulations on re-implant strategies and timing of implants. Find information about these regulations here and a list of all FDA approved implants for use in the U.S. here.  Veterinarians play a key role in consulting producers on what implants to use and when to use them, but also in assisting with implant quality control. This includes training, monitoring and auditing implants for correct administration to ensure all cattle receive the benefits for maximum returns.

Dr. Barrie Sands was raised in Brooklyn, New York. She always had a love of animals, but it wasn't until she finished her undergraduate degree that she committed to the idea of becoming a Veterinarian. She earned her DVM from Ross University in 1991.After graduation, she did an Internship in Small Animal Medicine and Surgery at the Animal Medical Center in New York City, followed by some locum work in the Tri-State area before moving to San Diego to practice emergency medicine. She has been at the same clinic for 30 years.In 2003, she started her official holistic journey by becoming certified in Acupuncture by IVAS. She started seeing patients for holistic care one day a week, and in the beginning of this year she stopped doing emergency medicine and is dedicating all of her clinical time to holistic patients.In addition to her clinical work, she has lectured extensively, written articles, and has published one book with another close to publication.Please enjoy this conversation with Dr. Barrie Sands as we discuss her education, clinical practice, simultaneously working in emergency medicine and holistic medicine, and her thoughts on resonance and connection with our patients and with each other.

Matt is a horse doctor who does stand up comedy. This humor comes through in Matt's book - https://www.simonandschuster.com/book...The story of how a young man who knows nothing about horses stumbles through becoming a horse veterinarian.Matt Evans, thanks to reading too much James Herriot as a child, had a dream—to become a veterinarian. That dream changed along the way to specifically becoming a horse vet. The only problem with his new dream was that Matt was not raised around horses. And, if you are not raised around horses, that makes for an uphill battle of overcoming ineptitude, imposter syndrome, and a load of doubters.Thankfully for Matt, it also comes with a lot of laughs.Sponsors:https://waterflyshop.com/mattnappohttps://nextbase.sjv.io/oq1e79https://propmoneyinc.pxf.io/c/3290446...https://vapeworld.evyy.net/c/3290446/...https://eycemolds.pxf.io/c/3290446/16...https://wineexpress.vneoga.net/yqG3E3https://www.dubby.gg/discount/minddog...

Brad takes a closer look at heat stress in dairy calves and cows. This episode highlights several recent studies on how temperature-humidity index affects calf behavior, lying time, respiration rates, shade use, and growth performance.Brad discusses research from the University of Guelph, The Ohio State University, and Mississippi State showing that heat-stressed calves spend less time lying down, stand more often, breathe harder, and may gain less weight when shade is not provided. He also reviews a Texas A&M study using precision livestock technology to monitor drinking behavior, rumen temperature, and heat stress responses in robotic milking herds.The big takeaway: heat stress in calves deserves more attention. Simple strategies like shade cloth, better ventilation, and more thoughtful housing design may help improve calf comfort, growth, and long-term performance.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

Send us Fan MailSometimes the best medicine is just listening. We've found this over and over again in this podcast – doctors, public health workers, ecologists and other people working in the One Health field struggle to solve some seemingly complicated problem, and then find it's pretty straightforward when they stop and really listen to the people they're trying to help. Whether it's parents worried about vaccines harming their children; residents suspicious of foreigners who say they want to help screen for a new disease that's spreading, or farmers struggling to work with veterinarians to keep their livestock healthy, people all have their own expertise, experience, and motivation. The so-called experts need to pay attention. Dr. Eri Togami learned some of this working in Rwanda, Tanzania, Cambodia, and elsewhere. She's a veterinarian and epidemiologist who's now working on her PhD in environmental health at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Whiting School of Engineering. In just one example, Togami says, she assumed farmers whose pigs were affected by a parasitic disease called cysticercosis would sell their animals readily. It was only after listening to them at length that she learned the pigs were actually valuable, long-term investments held against hard times. Listen as she chats with One World, One Health about what else she's learning as she works in the classroom and in the field.

"That's my own formula — passion and compassion tempered by dedication and humor." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund, OcuTrap, and Drop Traps: Beginning and Advanced Certification Workshop. After more than five decades behind the exam table, Dr. Kevin Lynch has treated thousands of pets, mentored generations of veterinary staff, and built one of Long Island's longest-running animal hospitals. His new memoir, Off the Leash: Tales From a Lifetime of Healing Pets and Wonder, traces that journey from a 13-year-old kid who talked his way into a part-time job at a local animal hospital to a veterinarian whose guiding philosophy is simple: treating the animal is only half the work, and tending to the person on the other end of the leash is the rest. Dr. Lynch and Stacy dig into one of the thorniest debates in animal welfare: the divide between "indoor-only" advocates and the realities of outdoor and community cat caregiving. Drawing on his own farm-cat memories from working summers on a dairy farm before vet school, he makes the case for listening over judging, and for meeting cat caregivers where they are instead of where a textbook says they should be. From there, the conversation turns practical: how should trappers and community cat program managers actually approach a veterinarian for the first time? Dr. Lynch's answer centers on intention, relationship-building, and showing up with a plan rather than a crisis. The episode also gets personal. Dr. Lynch opens up about compassion fatigue and burnout, a topic he says is as urgent in veterinary medicine today as it's ever been, and shares the daily habits, including a deliberately disciplined relationship with his phone, that keep him from burning out after 51 years in practice. He and Stacy also revisit one of the most harrowing chapters of his career: volunteering with search-and-rescue dogs at Ground Zero after 9/11, an experience he says revealed both the depths of tragedy and the best of human nature. Rounding out the conversation, Dr. Lynch shares a few of the stories from his book, including an unforgettable lesson in slowing down before attempting a DIY tick removal. He also talks about where listeners can find his memoir, his YouTube series The Pet Mindset Show, and the dental care device he invented for dogs and cats.

Human Rights Watch Thursday released a report detailing human rights abuses by the federal government during this winter's immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota, which the group alleges also violates international human rights treaties.The report documents what they allege were unlawful arrests, excessive use of force and unhealthy conditions in detention facilities. In an email to MPR News, a Homeland Security spokesperson denied the allegations of human rights violations.Federal prosecutors Wednesday dismissed charges against another protester accused of assaulting immigration agents. Video evidence continues to contradict sworn statements from Homeland Security officials.

Brad shares two studies He presented at the American Dairy Science Association annual meeting. First, he examines records from more than 150,000 lactations to compare genetic predictions for somatic cell score and clinical mastitis. The results suggest that PTA for somatic cell score is more useful for predicting and ranking cows by observed somatic cell count than PTA for mastitis.He also discusses a study comparing Holstein and crossbred heifers for feed intake, methane emissions, rumination, and feeding behavior. Although methane produced per kilogram of feed was similar across breed groups, smaller crossbred heifers consumed four to five pounds less dry matter per day. The findings highlight how genetics, breed, sensors, and precision feeding data could help producers improve herd health and heifer management.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

What happens when a livestock threat once thought eradicated begins moving north toward Texas? On this episode of Texas Talks, host Brad Swail sits down with Dr. Lori Teller, licensed veterinarian and Executive Director of the Texas Veterinary Medical Association (TVMA), to discuss the growing concern surrounding New World screwworm, the state of veterinary medicine in Texas, rural veterinarian shortages, telemedicine, and the future of animal health. Dr. Teller explains how New World screwworm infestations threaten livestock, wildlife, pets, and even humans, and why state and federal agencies are working urgently to prevent its spread throughout Texas and the United States. The conversation covers: • What New World screwworm is and how it spreads • Why the threat has returned after decades of containment • Sterile fly programs and eradication efforts • The potential impact on Texas agriculture and food production • How pet owners should respond to suspicious wounds • State and federal coordination to contain outbreaks • Rural veterinarian shortages across Texas • Student debt and workforce challenges in veterinary medicine • The Rural Veterinarian Incentive Program • Veterinary telemedicine and its limitations • Artificial intelligence in veterinary practice • Priorities for the upcoming Texas legislative session Dr. Teller also discusses how veterinary medicine extends far beyond dogs and cats, encompassing livestock, wildlife, public health, food safety, and emergency response efforts that are critical to Texas' economy and agricultural sector. The discussion explores the challenges of attracting veterinarians to rural communities, where shortages can impact ranchers, farmers, and animal owners across large geographic regions. The episode concludes with a look at how technology, telemedicine, and artificial intelligence are beginning to transform veterinary care while reinforcing the importance of maintaining strong veterinary networks throughout Texas. 00:00 — Intro + Meet Dr. Lori Teller 01:44 — Veterinary specialties and career paths 03:44 — What is New World screwworm? 06:50 — Why screw worm has returned 09:52 — Sterile fly facilities and containment efforts 11:30 — Worst-case scenarios for Texas agriculture 14:00 — State and federal response efforts 16:13 — Current screwworm cases in Texas 17:52 — What pet owners should do 20:15 — Rural veterinarian shortages 24:18 — The Rural Veterinarian Incentive Program 29:16 — Veterinary telemedicine explained 37:58 — Artificial intelligence in veterinary medicine 41:11 — Priorities for the next legislative session 41:48 — Closing thoughts Watch Full-Length Interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@TexasTalks Follow us on social mediaX: @Texas_DispatchInstagram: thetexasdispatchLinkedIn: The Texas DispatchTikTok: texas_talks_podcast Find more at The Texas DispatchYour source for state news, policy, and investigative journalism.https://thetexasdispatch.com

Brad discusses what he learned about high oleic soybeans at the Four State Dairy Management and Nutrition Conference in La Crosse, Wisconsin. High oleic soybeans are gaining attention in dairy nutrition because they can provide both rumen undegradable protein and a more rumen-friendly fat source, potentially reducing the need for purchased protein and fat supplements.The episode covers how high oleic beans differ from conventional soybeans, why roasting quality matters, and how measures like protein dispersibility index help determine whether beans are under- or over-processed. Brad also reviews feeding rates, farm case studies showing milk fat and energy-corrected milk responses, possible cost savings, and the pros and cons of adopting high oleic beans on dairy farms.Overall, high oleic soybeans are not a silver bullet, but they may offer dairy producers another tool for improving ration economics, milk components, and on-farm feed production when managed carefully.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich provides an update on the current incursions of New World Screwworm across the southern border of the United States.  The discussion includes of the movement of the fly across the Darien Gap into central America and then its movement into Mexico. Gingrich also discusses the lifecycle of the fly, how it infects animals, and current prevention measurements using sterile male flies. He also provides information about the current challenges with fly capacity and the efforts to alleviate this issue. The response effort will rely on the success of daily inspection of animals and reporting all suspected cases. Reporting cases will provide information to state and federal animal health officials to know where to institute prevention measures such as sterile fly dispersals, traps and ground release of flies. Veterinarians should train clients how to identify cases and develop protocols for treatment and prevention. This training should include discussions on at-risk animal groups as well as delaying wound-causing procedures or developing prevention protocols when wounds are caused by a procedure. The FDA has evaluated several products for treatment and prevention of New World Screwworm and Gingrich discusses this authorization process as well as which products have been approved for cattle.  Gingrich also encourages all veterinarians to educate themselves using the available resources and to communicate to members in their communities the facts about this fly with reliable resources and information.  AABP New World Screwworm page - https://aabp.org/resources/screw_worm/ USDA New World Screwworm landing page - https://www.aphis.usda.gov/animals/animal-health/livestock-and-poultry-disease/stop-screwworm USDA New World Screwworm new detections dashboard - https://www.aphis.usda.gov/animals/animal-health/livestock-and-poultry-disease/current-status/us-confirmed-cases-new-world FDA New World Screwworm page - https://www.fda.gov/animal-veterinary/safety-health/new-world-screwworm-information-veterinarians

A case of New World screwworm was recently identified in a three-month-old calf in Zavala County, Texas, near the Texas-Mexico border. In this episode, Brad breaks down what New World screwworm is, why it matters to livestock producers, and what signs to watch for in cattle and other animals. He explains how the larvae infest live tissue, how the pest spreads, and why early detection, reporting, quarantine, and treatment are key to preventing further spread.The episode also clears up common myths, including whether screwworm spreads animal-to-animal or person-to-person, whether whole herds must be culled, and whether recovered animals can enter the food supply. Brad also discusses past eradication efforts using sterile flies, current treatment options, and the importance of producer awareness, especially for those in areas at higher risk. Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

Understanding Puppy Heart Murmurs and Congenital Heart Disease In this episode of Pure Dog Talk's "Veterinary Voice," host Laura Reeves and Dr. Marty Greer explore the complexities of congenital heart disease in puppies, offering essential guidance for breeders on diagnosing, treating and navigating cardiac health in their litters. The Importance of the First Vet Visit & Puppy Murmurs Dr. Greer emphasizes the crucial need for a thorough veterinary exam before placing any puppies in their forever homes to protect the breeder's reputation and ensure the puppy's health. A heart murmur occurs when blood flows backward through the heart, creating turbulence. Veterinarians grade these murmurs on a scale from one to six, where a grade one is incredibly subtle and a grade six is loud enough to be felt through the chest wall without a stethoscope. To ensure an accurate diagnosis, Dr. Greer advises that the puppy must have all four feet on the exam table in a completely quiet room. While some early, subtle murmurs resolve over time or are simply caused by typical puppy anemia, any persisting or loud murmur requires an echocardiogram. The 5 Common Congenital Heart Defects in Puppies Dr. Greer details the most frequently diagnosed congenital heart defects: Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA):A condition where a fetal blood vessel fails to close after birth. While serious, it is the only defect on this list that can be surgically corrected, often using a minimally invasive Amplatz catheter, allowing the dog to live a completely normal life.Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD):A hole between the heart's two ventricles. Depending on the size of the hole, dogs with a VSD can live normal lives as family pets, though they are usually not suited for high-endurance performance events.Subaortic Stenosis (SAS) & Pulmonic Stenosis:A narrowing of the blood vessels exiting the heart, known to be genetic in breeds like Newfoundlands. These dogs typically require lifelong medication and may face a shortened life expectancy.Tricuspid Valve Disease:A dysplasia or malformation of the valve on the right side of the heart. Currently, there is no surgical correction available in veterinary medicine and these dogs generally face a poor long-term prognosis. Best Practices for Breeders Because there are currently no DNA tests available for these genetic cardiac diseases, breeders must rely heavily on physical screening. Dr. Greer strongly recommends that echocardiograms on breeding stock be performed exclusively by board-certified veterinary cardiologists, as the imaging is highly user-dependent and easily misdiagnosed by a general practitioner. Even with meticulous screening, it is still possible to produce a puppy with a congenital heart defect. Because of this, both Laura and Dr. Greer stress the importance of open, honest and gossip-free communication within the breeding community when these issues arise.
