Dr. Mike is back with a bonus episode nobody scheduled, because the screwworm did not check our calendar. The New World screwworm has arrived in the United States for the first time in sixty years, confirmed in Texas and New Mexico, with a quarantine zone now covering fourteen Texas counties. While livestock take the hardest hit, cats are absolutely at risk, because the fly lays her eggs in any open wound, and even a small scratch or post-surgical incision is enough of an invitation. The saving grace is that a year of preparation preceded this moment, with FDA emergency use authorizations now covering cats, including Credelio Cat and NexGard COMBO, and most recently a generic over-the-counter nitenpyram option that kills larvae within hours. Dr. Mike explains what living in the affected zone actually means for your cat, and whether the screwworm's steady northward march through Central America and Mexico is likely to continue up the map. We also cover the other infection keeping feline medicine on its toes: H5N1 in cats. More than 130 feline cases of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 have been confirmed across the United States, from barn cats to strictly indoor pets, and cats appear to be exquisitely sensitive to the virus. The mortality rate sits somewhere between fifty and seventy percent, and whether infected cats can pass the virus to other cats remains an open and uncomfortable question. Two infections, one episode, and a very compelling argument for keeping your cat's wounds clean and your raw milk off the menu. Do not miss this one.miss.Thanks for tuning in to the Purr Podcast with Dr. Susan and Dr. Jolle!If you enjoyed today's episode, don't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave us a review—it really helps other cat lovers and vet nerds find the show.

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

Episode 140 – 15 Minute Speed Coaching with Sharon Jones – Dogs and Car Journeys   Welcome to another 15-minute Speed Coaching Session for Veterinary and Pet Care Professionals! The rules of the game are as follows: ·         Episodes will be in-the-moment, off-the-cuff and unscripted. ·         Coaching sessions will be 15 Minutes MAXIMUM, so wherever we finish, we finish… ·         Which means that we might not find complete resolution to your question, but we will certainly get the thought process started!   In this episode, I chat to Canine Dog Trainer and Behaviourist, Sharon Jones, about the challenges of working through cases where dogs show fear- or stress behaviours on car journeys. How do we know if this is a physical health concern (nausea or pain), fear or anxiety, fear learning, anticipatory excitement, frustration or something else? And, how do we start unpicking behaviours to find the emotional motivation and behavioural drivers? Have a listen as we chat through different thoughts and approaches, which medications may be useful and the discussions we have about this topic on the ACVB List serve.   One of my passion projects – and indeed the topic of my residency research – is stress management during air travel in pets and while air- and car travel are different in some respects, they also share a LOT of commonalities. Here's a link to my review paper on Feline Stress Management during Air Travel, which I mention in the episode, and, of course, so much of this information can be extrapolated to dogs too ! https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1098612X221145521   I absolutely loved chatting to Sharon, and I really hope you find this episode useful !   If you'd like to book a 30-minute Vet-Vet or Vet-Pet Care Professional Consultation with me, you can do that right here: https://calendly.com/trinityvet/teams-and-professionals If you can't find an appointment time to suit you, please email us at info@trinityvetbehaviour.com to find a time that suits us both!   If you'd like to know more about my case-based Veterinary Behaviour Membership – The Behaviour Case Collective – then you can do this right here:   https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/behaviour-case-collective   And… if YOU would like to be part of a 15-Minute Podcast Speed Coaching episode, then apply right here: https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/assessments/2148527544   If you liked this episode of the show, Veterinary Behaviour Chat, please LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW, like, share, and subscribe!   Facebook Group: Join The Veterinary Behaviour Community on Facebook   You can CONNECT with me: Website: Visit my website Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Instagram: Follow Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on Instagram Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Facebook: Join us on Trinity Veterinary Behaviour's Facebook page Trinity Veterinary Behaviour YouTube: Subscribe to Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on YouTube LinkedIn Profile: Connect with me on LinkedIn   Thank you for tuning in!

A group of dedicated veterinarians joined me to talk about the launch of the Homeopathic Veterinary Teaching Group (HVTG), a new training academy for vets who want to learn and practice homeopathy. We discussed some of the challenges facing the veterinary profession today and how homeopathy has helped many vets find renewed purpose and satisfaction in their work. The conversation also explored HVTG's goal of passing on knowledge through mentorship, hands-on learning, and a strong sense of community. Along the way, we talked about the importance of understanding animals as individuals and how this approach can help vets provide more holistic care. Episode Highlights: 05:27 - The Birth of HVTG 08:59 - Curriculum Development and Teaching Methods 12:23 - The Learning Environment 18:03 - The Impact of In-Person Education 21:01 - Course Structure and Logistics 21:47 - Target Audience for the Course 24:35 - Growing Demand for Natural Solutions 26:37 - Curriculum Highlights 34:28 - Why this course matters for vets today About my Guests: Geoff Johnson is a veterinarian with nearly 40 years of clinical experience and more than 30 years of using homeopathy in practice. After working as a country veterinarian, he discovered homeopathy and became fascinated by its potential to improve animal health, leading him to pursue formal training in Oxford as a veterinary homeopath and later continue his studies in human homeopathy. Throughout his career, Geoff has developed a particular interest in the relationship between physical health, stress, behavior, and individualized patient care. In addition to his clinical work, he is passionate about teaching, lifelong learning, and advancing thoughtful conversations around integrative approaches to veterinary medicine. Emily McAteer is a Dublin-based veterinary surgeon with a special interest in integrative medicine, combining conventional veterinary care with homeopathy to provide individualized, patient-centered treatment. A graduate of University College Dublin, she has more than 20 years of experience using homeopathy in small animal practice and holds the MFVetHom qualification from the Integrative School of Medicine in Bristol. Emily has also trained at the Irish School of Homeopathy and is qualified to treat both animals and people. In addition to her clinical work, she is passionate about teaching, mentorship, and helping build a supportive international community for veterinarians interested in integrative approaches to animal health. Peter Gregory is a veterinary surgeon who discovered homeopathy after qualifying and later built his practice around its use in animal care. He trained in veterinary homeopathy in the UK and has since spent many years working in referral practice, alongside teaching veterinarians in the UK and internationally. With decades of clinical experience, he has also co-authored key texts in veterinary homeopathy and contributed widely to the field. His work focuses on helping vets apply homeopathic principles in practice while encouraging a more thoughtful, holistic approach to animal health. Barbara Jones is a veterinary surgeon with qualifications including BVMS, MRCVS, and VetMFHom, and she has built her career around integrating conventional veterinary medicine with complementary therapies, especially homeopathy. After qualifying in the UK, she went on to study at the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital and became a member of the Faculty of Homeopathy in 1992. In 1994, she established Oakwood Veterinary Centre, where she combines diagnostics and treatment with a holistic approach that includes homeopathy, acupuncture, nutrition, and herbal medicine. She is also involved in teaching and supporting farmers and veterinary professionals in learning and applying homeopathy in practice.

Nigel Antony Gray, a New Zealand researcher known for detailed Official Information Act (OIA) requests, discusses a recent police response that accused him of being “vexatious". The police say they are now actively monitoring his social media posts, and they have refused to give further information on the new compulsory roadside oral drug testing regime, which Gray was seeking further information about, including asking specifically about safety data.The conversation covers Gray's concerns about the clear lack of safety data on the roadside drug swabs and chemical fluids, and the potential long-term health risks these could entail. High false positive rates, and concerns about infringing upon the Bill Of Rights are other major concerns. As well as broader issues of police transparency, freedom of speech, and government accountability (or the lack therof...).Gray also shares insights into his analytical research methods and work on topics such as shipping emissions containing cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), and the negative impacts of this pollution on New Zealand's atmospheric conditions.Links:Police now refusing OIA requests — and monitoring my Facebook posts?: https://www.facebook.com/groups/513077184341057/posts/1308987041416730/The Police are now reading my posts: https://www.facebook.com/nigel.gray.5/posts/pfbid02GDz2z6rcAKom21AY2QRCpmbbMpB1c8rwNia3hWNcxgBxASnNbJQDgmJTQMtEnwz5l?rdid=caIouLpMW1JifStZROAD SIDE Drug Testing Explained in Simple Terms: https://www.advancediagnostics.co.nz/road-side-drug-testing-explained-in-simple-terms/Bill Of Rights - Section 9: Right not to be subjected to torture or cruel treatment: https://nzccl.org.nz/bill-of-rights-act/section-9-right-not-to-be-subjected-to-torture-or-cruel-treatment/New Zealand Police - Drug screening test Info: https://www.police.govt.nz/advice-services/drugs-and-alcohol/roadside-drug-driving-testing/health-and-safety-and-privacySecurtec Saliva drug test DrugWipe: https://www.securetec.net/en/products/saliva-drug-test-drugwipe/Where do cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) come from?: https://courses.ems.psu.edu/meteo300/node/67191% of Kiwis over the age of 65 are on some form of medication: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/hannah-mcqueen-could-your-prescription-medication-be-speeding-up-your-decline/premium/AAPO74ZR45CPVIYO3TFHDVNQ6A/NEW ZEALAND PRO-SURVIVAL CHARTER: https://www.facebook.com/groups/945959371693458Nigel Antony Gray on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nigel.gray.5/Nigel on Substack: https://nigelgrayearthpulse.substack.comTo send a tip to Nigel for the important work he is doing:Name: Nigel Antony GrayAccount: 03-1771-0572896-00Support FreeNZ:Substack: https://freenz.substack.com/Locals: https://freenz.locals.comBuy Me A Coffee: www.buymeacoffee.com/supportfreenzKo-fi: https://ko-fi.com/freenzhttps://freenz.carrd.coEmail: freenewzealand[at]protonmail[dot]com for bank account details.Affiliates:Dioxi Care - Chlorine Dioxide based Oral Care, Skin Care & Veterinary & Wound Care: https://frontierpharm.com/?sca_ref=9717384.brQladA5pgSnoot Spray - Chlorine Dioxide based Nasal Cleaner: https://www.snootspray.com/?sca_ref=9667634.AV2NJQvGlTBlock Blue Light - Red Light Glasses, Full Spectrum Lightbulbs & Sleep Tools to optimise your light environment and prioritise your wellbeing: https://www.blockbluelight.co.nz/?ref=FreeNZMediaWide Awake Media - Freedom T-Shirts: https://wideawake.clothing/en-nz?sca_ref=9458851.1aXfjvGDqL

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

Veterinary revenues are up, but visits are down, and that gap is where the access to care crisis lives. In this episode of Petworking, Peter Kenseth reconnects with Dr. Ben Hantler, founder of Consulting Medical Partners and one of the show's earliest guests, to talk through why veterinary care keeps getting more expensive and what the industry can do about it.Their conversation moves from rising exam fees and a la carte billing to the stubbornly low rate of pet insurance adoption, the veterinary shortage and burnout, and the promise of at-home diagnostics, telehealth, and membership models. Along the way they get honest about economic euthanasia, the toll the system takes on veterinarians, and why Peter started the Petworking Angel Fund. It is a candid, solutions-minded look at a problem that touches every pet owner, every clinic, and every pet.

In today’s VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, we chat with Dr. Marisa Ames, DACVIM (Cardiology), who is president of the American Heartworm Society (AHS). Here she shares findings from the latest AHS heartworm incidence survey–including factors behind the spread of heartworm disease–and discusses how veterinarians can utilize the AHS map and protect patients from this serious but preventable disease.Sponsored By: American Heartworm Society

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

Have you ever wondered whether you're actually burned out on veterinary medicine—or just burned out by the place you're practicing it? In this episode, Dr. Brianna Armstrong and Phoebe Valdez tackle a difficult but important question: How do you know if you're in a toxic work environment? More importantly, what should you do when you've realized it's time to move on? Veterinary medicine itself is not inherently toxic. But some workplaces are. When we confuse the profession with the environment, we risk walking away from careers we once loved. This conversation explores the warning signs of toxic culture, why people stay longer than they should, how to evaluate your next workplace, and how to leave with integrity when it's time for a change. In This Episode 5 Signs You May Be Working in a Toxic Environment 1. Fear is Driving Behavior 2. Problems Are Always People, Never Processes 3. Turnover Is Constant 4. Speaking Up Changes Nothing 5. You Don't Feel Like Yourself Anymore Before You Leave If you're on the fence, consider having an honest conversation with leadership first. Approach the conversation with: Curiosity instead of accusation  Specific examples  A desire to understand  A willingness to collaborate on solutions  How leadership responds can tell you a lot about whether change is possible. How to Evaluate Your Next Hospital Before accepting a new position: Talk to current team members.  Ask why previous employees left.  Read online reviews.  Request a working interview.  Observe how the team handles stress and conflict.  Ask about the hospital's values.  Make sure the culture aligns with your own values.  Remember: hospitals interview candidates, but candidates should be interviewing hospitals too. How to Leave Your Hospital Well Leaving professionally protects your reputation and helps move veterinary medicine forward. Give Appropriate Notice Read your employment contract carefully.  Follow any notice requirements outlined in your agreement.  At minimum, provide two weeks' notice.  For veterinarians, managers, and leadership roles, one to two months' notice is often more appropriate when possible.  Stay Professional Until the End Continue showing up and doing quality work.  Avoid disengaging or becoming negative.  Finish strong and leave your team in the best position possible.  Don't Burn Bridges Avoid dramatic exits.  Don't vent on social media.  Don't attempt to "get even."  Veterinary medicine is a small profession, and your reputation matters.  Provide Constructive Feedback If you're asked why you're leaving: Be honest.  Be specific.  Focus on behaviors and systems, not personal attacks.  Share feedback with the goal of helping future team members.  Remember Your Goal The goal is not revenge. The goal is a healthier future for yourself. Key Takeaway Every time someone leaves a toxic workplace and chooses a healthy one, they're casting a vote for the future of veterinary medicine. Great hospitals deserve great people. And great people deserve great workplaces. Connect With Us Dr. Brianna Armstrong Instagram: @drarmstrongdvm Phoebe Valdez Instagram: @phoebe_valdezz If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who may need to hear it.

Episode 139 – Can I offer Veterinary Behaviour Consultations without being a Trainer?   This episode was inspired by a Zoom Call question from one of my lovely participants of Learn To Speak Dog and Learn To Speak Cat, who is in the process of setting up a Veterinary Behaviour Service in a new hospital she has started working in. Her concern is that she can't yet offer consultations as she has not yet found aligned trainers to work with who can support her in her cases.   What do you think my thoughts and advice were to her? Have a listen to this episode to find out and to hear more about my own personal journey and how I currently manage the "Behaviour Modification" or "Training" element of the Veterinary Behaviour Treatment Plan.   If you'd like the chance to ask me your questions in person, you can do that in our Live Group Zoom Calls in the following courses: Learn To Speak Dog - https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/learn-to-speak-dog Learn To Speak Cat - https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/learn-to-speak-cat Psychoactive - https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/psychoactive   And, of course, in my Membership Program – "The Behaviour Case Collective" https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/behaviour-case-collective   If you liked this episode of the show, Veterinary Behaviour Chat, please LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW, like, share, and subscribe!   Facebook Group: Join The Veterinary Behaviour Community on Facebook   You can CONNECT with me: Website: Visit my website Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Instagram: Follow Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on Instagram Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Facebook: Join us on Trinity Veterinary Behaviour's Facebook page Trinity Veterinary Behaviour YouTube: Subscribe to Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on YouTube LinkedIn Profile: Connect with me on LinkedIn   Thank you for tuning in!

New rules released by the Trump administration earlier this month will require Medicaid recipients with cancer and other conditions to prove they're too sick to work. The rule is part of new Medicaid eligibility requirements that take effect next year.  Colorado Medicaid director Adela Flores-Brennan explains how his state is preparing. Then, after decades of containment in the Central American tropics, the New World screwworm, a flesh-eating cattle parasite, has been detected in Texas and New Mexico. Veterinary entomologist Edwin Burgess explains what this means for U.S. livestock. And, a judge has temporarily restored the eligibility of Texas Tech University quarterback Brendan Sorsby after he acknowledged making thousands of impermissible bets worth at least $90,000 on college and professional sports.

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

Brad discusses new research comparing dairy heifers raised on pasture versus in confinement, focusing on studies from Wisconsin and Minnesota. Both studies found that pasture-raised heifers were slightly lighter and gained less before calving, but they reached calving at a similar age and showed advantages after freshening. Pasture-raised animals had higher dry matter intake, fewer health issues in the Minnesota study, and stronger first-lactation milk production, especially under rotational grazing systems. Brad also highlights the economic upside: pasture systems reduced heifer feed costs and, in the Wisconsin study, improved income over feed cost during lactation. The episode makes the case that raising dairy heifers on pasture can be a practical strategy to lower rearing costs without sacrificing, and potentially improving, future milk production. 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

After-hours and urgent care have changed dramatically in veterinary medicine, but the system still has serious gaps. In this episode, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, look at what happens when pet owners need help after hours, and there's nowhere realistic to send them. The conversation starts with the old model of pagers, late-night calls, and general practices carrying emergency responsibility. Then it moves into today's urgent care boom, the difference between true urgent care and walk-in sick visits, and the strain this puts on veterinary teams. But this episode also widens the lens beyond dogs and cats. Horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, hedgehogs, birds, and other companion animals are often left with even fewer options, especially when emergencies happen outside normal clinic hours. Ernie and Beckie talk honestly about sustainability, affordability, team burnout, and why expanding care may be both a challenge and an opportunity for the profession. #VeterinaryMedicine #VetMed #VeterinaryUrgentCare #AfterHoursVetCare #VeterinaryViewfinder

 Brad shares updates from the University of Minnesota Morris dairy herd, including cows heading out to spring pasture, a recent Holstein classification, and highlights from several high-scoring cows. He then revisits University of Minnesota crossbreeding research comparing Holsteins with Viking Red and Montbéliarde crosses. The results show that crossbred cows often had better fertility, lower health treatment costs, improved survival to later lactations, and higher daily profitability, even when milk volume was sometimes lower than Holsteins. Brad also connects these findings to current beef-on-dairy calf research showing health advantages from crossbreeding, especially fewer scours and digestive problems.

In this episode of The Moos Room, Brad discusses spring pasture challenges in western Minnesota, including dry conditions, temperature swings, and slowed grass growth. With summer heat on the horizon, the focus shifts to heat stress in dairy cows and how precision technologies, especially internal bolus sensors, can help farmers identify problems earlier.Brad shares observations from cows monitored with Smaxtec boluses, including rumination, internal body temperature, and water intake data. He also reviews research from the University of Minnesota herd showing that rumination may start dropping at lower temperature-humidity index levels than traditional industry thresholds suggest. Conventional cows showed rumination declines around a THI of 64, while pasture-based organic cows showed declines closer to 58.The episode highlights why waiting for milk production losses may be too late when managing heat stress. Instead, rumination, body temperature, water intake, shade, cooling systems, and feeding strategies can all play a role in protecting cow comfort and performance before visible signs of heat stress appear.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
