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.

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.

This year's crop hasn't even been harvested but Wisconsin farmers are already looking ahead to 2026. One big bill they're trying to find a way to pay is for fertilizer their crop will need. Shane Goplin is a farmer with HV Acres and a Wisconsin Corn Grower member. He's watching developments in Washington that could help farms better understand what's happening with fertilizer supplies, and in turn plan for that bill. Goplin says a bill was introduced in congress that aims to create more transparency and lower costs for fertilizers. He explains the strategy to Ben Jarboe. Goplin says farms are accustomed to fertilizer prices going up when commodity prices go up - but that's definitely not the case today.Warm and dry!

Performance evaluations are one of the most misunderstood and often dreaded processes in veterinary medicine. Many clinics either skip them entirely or treat them as a once-a-year formality tied closely to raises. This creates stress for team members and fails to deliver meaningful guidance for improvement. In this episode of The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, discuss why traditional performance reviews often fall short and explore practices that can help change this dynamic. Drawing on decades of experience, they examine the impact of inconsistent feedback, the problems caused by waiting a full year to address performance issues, and the anxiety that arises when evaluations are directly linked to compensation. Through real-world examples, Ernie and Beckie illustrate how these common mistakes erode morale and hinder growth within the veterinary team. The conversation then turns to solutions, focusing on how to create a culture where feedback is continuous, specific, and actionable. They discuss how regular conversations foster trust, enhance communication, and enhance leadership at every level of the practice. By shifting the mindset around performance evaluations, veterinary teams can transform a process that is often dreaded into a tool that inspires confidence, accountability, and long-term success. #VeterinaryPodcast #VetMed #VetTechLife #ClinicCulture #ClientCommunication #PracticeManagement #HealthyWorkplace #VetWellbeing #RespectVetTeams

Send us a textEver wondered how to master complex veterinary procedures without someone physically guiding you? Technical Tutorial Videos (TTVs) are revolutionizing veterinary education by providing visual demonstrations that text alone simply cannot convey.In this illuminating conversation, three-time TTV author Dr. Rebecca Bishop shares her journey creating peer-reviewed video manuscripts for the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association. She reveals how these innovative publications serve as powerful teaching tools for techniques ranging from equine tracheobronchial washing to surgical instrument handling for left-handed practitioners. This latter topic holds special significance for Dr. Bishop, who was once told to "give up hope of being a surgeon" because she was left-handed – a limitation she has thoroughly disproven and now helps others overcome through her video teaching.Dr. Bishop demystifies the production process, explaining how she plans content strategically, captures video footage, and records audio separately to create polished, educational resources. She shares practical advice for potential video creators: "Don't let fear of performance or technology hold you back." Unlike standard online videos, these manuscripts undergo rigorous peer review while remaining open access, allowing authors to retain copyright and share widely for teaching purposes. The format provides unique opportunities for collaboration, with Dr. Bishop involving veterinary trainees in scriptwriting and production.Whether you're a practicing veterinarian seeking to expand your technical repertoire, an educator looking for innovative teaching methods, or a veterinary professional considering sharing your expertise through this medium, this episode offers valuable insights into the future of veterinary education. Watch Dr. Bishop's published technical tutorial videos on the AVMA Journals website or YouTube channel and consider how you might contribute to this growing educational resource.INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ® OR AJVR ® ?

"If you love cats, you should be concerned about trying to help bring those numbers down so animals don't suffer because this is why we do this. We don't want animals suffering, having unwanted litters of cats and having to have them suffer." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund and 6 Degrees of Cats. In this powerful episode, host Stacy LeBaron sits down with Cathy Bissell, founder of Bissell Pet Foundation, who has revolutionized animal welfare through innovative programs reaching over 6,000 shelters across 49 states. From her unexpected entry into animal welfare during Hurricane Katrina to creating the nation's largest funded adoption event, Cathy's journey demonstrates how strategic thinking and passionate commitment can create systemic change. Her foundation has impacted nearly one million pets since 2011, but it's her latest initiative that's truly disrupting the industry. Cathy shares the incredible success of her groundbreaking "Fix the Future" program, launched in 2023 to address the veterinary care access crisis. In just under 18 months, this free spay/neuter initiative has sterilized 138,000 animals across 27 states, with an astounding 86,963 of those being cats. Through a network of 385 high-volume, high-quality relief veterinarians, the program is tackling overpopulation at its source while keeping costs remarkably low at just $35 per surgery. Cathy discusses the challenges of scaling this model, the importance of treating every animal that comes through their doors, and why she believes this "disruptor program" is essential for breaking down cost barriers that prevent people from accessing veterinary care. Whether you're working in a small grassroots rescue or leading a major shelter, this episode provides invaluable insights into creating sustainable, scalable solutions that address root causes rather than just symptoms. Cathy's emphasis on collaboration, her honest discussion about learning from mistakes (including a powerful story about declawing), and her practical advice for getting started at any age will inspire listeners to think bigger about their impact and consider how they can contribute to solving the access to care crisis in their own communities. Press play now for: Cathy's unexpected journey from Hurricane Katrina volunteer to founding a major animal welfare foundation The evolution from disaster response to adoption events to addressing systemic access to care challenges Incredible statistics: 138,000 spay/neuter surgeries in 18 months with 86,963 cats across 27 states How the Fix the Future program operates with 385 relief veterinarians at just $35 per surgery The power of MASH-style clinics and why community cat advocates should consider creating their own Why Michigan serves as a prime example with 3,000 cats out of 4,000 total surgeries at their clinic The importance of spaying/neutering before adoption and addressing kittens under six months How veterinary school limitations (graduating with only 1-3 spay/neuter surgeries) impact private practice capacity Cathy's honest story about learning from the declawing controversy and how it changed her foundation's policies Practical advice for getting involved at any age and making a difference beyond just donating money The role of Empty the Shelters adoption events in supporting shelter operations nationwide Why every animal deserves vaccination and ear-tipping as part of comprehensive TNR programs Resources mentioned: Bissell Pet Foundation website (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/) Empty the Shelters adoption events (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/programs/empty-the-shelters/) Fix the Future spay/neuter initiative (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/programs/fix-the-future/) Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine (https://www.vetmed.msstate.edu/) MSU shelter medicine program details (https://www.vetmed.msstate.edu/about/points-of-pride) United Spay Alliance website (https://www.unitedspayalliance.org/) United Spay Alliance wet lab training programs (https://www.unitedspayalliance.org/hqhvsn-wet-labs/) BISSELL Pet Foundation grant information (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/grant-information/) Operation Fix the Future clinics (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/operation-fix-the-future/) BISSELL Pet Foundation Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/bissellpets/) Sponsor Links: Maddie's Fund (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/maddies623) Six Degrees of Cats (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/6-degrees-of-cats/id1669849217) Follow & Review We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.
