A couple of months ago, we had a Facebook post that elicited a lot of very passionate responses and also uncovered a lot of myths and misinformation about worms in goats.In today's episode we are talking about many of the comments that were made on that post and explaining what current research says specifically about goat worms, which are different from worms in other species like dogs, cats, horses, pigs, and even cattle. We are joined by Dr. Michael Pesato, a diplomate of the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners specializing in Food Animal Practice. He most recently served as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Food Animal Medicine and Surgery at Mississippi State University. We start by explaining what "smart deworming" means and what it does not mean, and what really causes dewormer resistance. We also talk about what fecals can and cannot tell you about the worms your goat may have.Dr. Pesato gets into the nitty gritty of why we should never use the calendar as a tool for deworming, whether you are talking about deworming in a specific month, every X number of months, or X numbers of days after the last deworming. These are all old practices that were not based on research. We also discuss when and where eggs hatch and how larvae mature, which is not commonly known. In addition to a thorough explanation of goat worms, we also talk about continuing education for veterinarians and why you can't trust Google to give you the latest information on worms. For additional information, check out our podcast episodes on Using Deworming Correctly (Episode 24) and New Guidelines for Using Dewormers in Goats (Episode 68).See full show notes here >> https://thriftyhomesteader.com/goat-worm-myths-and-misunderstandings/To see the most recent episodes, visit  ForTheLoveOfGoats.comWant to support the content you love?Head over to -- https://thrifty-homesteader.ck.page/products/love-goats-tip-jarThanks for listening!No one ever said raising goats was easy, but it doesn't have to cost a fortune or drive you crazy!

When some people hear a goat cough, pneumonia is often the first thing that comes to mind, but it is really not common in goats. A cough is also not a good indication of whether a goat has pneumonia or when it has recovered from pneumonia. In today's episode we are talking to Dr. Michael Pesato, Assistant Clinical Professor of Food Animal Medicine and Surgery at Mississippi State University. He is board certified with the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners, specializing in Food Animal Practice.We discuss the wide variety of reasons that goats cough, as well as the real symptoms of pneumonia and how it is diagnosed. We also talk about which antibiotics work best when a goat has pneumonia and why penicillin should not be the one you reach for first. Dr. Pesato discusses the pneumonia vaccine in cattle and why it's not appropriate for goats, as well as how management is the key to avoiding pneumonia.See full show notes here >> https://thriftyhomesteader.com/pneumonia-in-goats/To see the most recent episodes, visit  ForTheLoveOfGoats.comWant to support the content you love?Head over to -- https://thrifty-homesteader.ck.page/products/love-goats-tip-jar

Even though most of you reading this probably don't think of your goats as food animals, that is how they are categorized in the veterinary world. Since very few food animals don't have the opportunity to live out their natural lives, there is little research on dealing with health challenges in individual animals. The focus tends to be on herd health, contagious diseases, and production. It can become even more challenging to care for them in old age because there is even less research on the health issues faced by senior animals. So, what's a goat owner to do when our favorite goats get old? In this episode, I'm talking to Dr. Michael Pesato, assistant clinical professor of Food Animal Medicine and Surgery at Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine and a diplomat of the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners for Food Animal Practice. In a previous article on senior goats, I discussed what to expect in terms of reproduction as your goats get older, as well life expectancy, and parasites in older goats.In this episode, we are discussing some of the most common challenges faced by senior goats, including how to deal with age-related arthritis, dental issues, and extremes of hot and cold temperatures, which are especially challenging for older goats.

To let your cat outside or not, that is one of those vexing questions that cat owners wrestle with… the pros and cons are almost limitless. Pros: Envision your cat scampering up trees, stalking butterflies in the tall grass or lazily basking in the sun…what an idyllic life for a cat. Cons: the cat fight on your back fence that results in a deep bite wound and the subsequent deadly Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) infection it contracts, or the encounter with a speeding car as it attempts to cross the street and let's not forget about the mauling on your own property by a free roaming dog. Cats love to go outside but we know that there are innumerable dangers just beyond your backdoor, even in your backyard. But is it fair to keep them solely inside? Won't they get bored, fat, destructive? What can concerned responsible cat owners do to keep their cats and the wildlife that cats are drawn to predate safe? Dr. Kelly St. Denis is the president of the American Association of Feline Practitioners. She is certified with the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners in the specialty of feline practice. Dr. St. Denis is proudly one of the 6 Canadian feline specialist members of Cat Healthy Canada. EPISODE NOTES: Inside Outside, You Decide

Taoist Manimal Podcast Ep 47 Dr. La’Toya Latney Dr. La’Toya Latney is an exotic animal and zoo veterinarian. She's a boarded reptile medicine specialist under American Board of Veterinary Practitioners. Under their reptile specialty, she's one of 20 worldwide. She is the head of the Exotic Animal Medicine service at the University of Pennsylvania’s Veterinary Hospital. She grew up in a community that experienced poverty and violence as a regular part of daily existence, she has lived in a third world country, pilgrimaged out of the country and within it to study the classical Indian dance form Bharatanatyam, all while being a progressive advocate and teacher for a unique and growing service. She also has been one of my closest friends for 7 years, legal family member by marriage, and soul-mate by nature of my deep appreciation, admiration, respect and love for her as a human living her own unique dharma while respecting and supporting my own. La’Toya and I recently separated as traditional life partners, choosing to live our own paths while continuing to love, respect and care for one another as individuals outside of a romantic partnership. We don’t manage to get much into that in this discussion, but I anticipate that being the subject of future conversations as we continue to redefine things like what family is, soulmates consist of, and (as tends to fit with my affinity toward Taoism) how definitions of things (love being one example) always fall quite short of the power of a thing. In the meantime, La’Toya would like you to remember “don’t overextend yourself” as she redefines her own limits, while still making the world a better place because of her efforts in it.

On today's DiabetesPowerShow, Charlie Cherry, Chris Moore, Theresa Moore, and Chris Daniel talk about Pets with Diabetes. This episode is dedicated to Chris Moore's Daughter, Angelica, whose sweet puppy passed away last weekend.  We welcome 3 special guests in studio: Nicholas Vitale DVM Nicholas grew up in Metro Detroit, and knew from a young age that he wanted to, some day, become a veterinarian. He attended undergraduate studies at Michigan State University, and holds a degree in Zoo and Aquarium Science. He then attended veterinary school, also at Michigan State, and graduated in 2011. Nicholas originally went into veterinary medicine because he wanted to be a zoo veterinarian. However, as things and interests changed, he decided that he wanted to become a pathologist. Post veterinary school, he attended and began a Residency in Anatomic Pathology at Cornell University. After approximately one year, Nicholas decided that pathology was not where he wanted to be in the veterinary medicine world. He moved back home, where he spent another year in Detroit, practicing small animal medicine. Nicholas moved to Las Vegas three years ago, and has been practicing at Desert Inn Animal Hospital ever since. Currently, he is preparing for, and studying to sit for his board accreditation, through the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners. When not working, Nicholas spends a lot of his free time volunteering, and being with friends. He is highly involved with The Desert Tortoise Foundation, as well as The Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, and with Desert Tortoise Research and Health Monitoring. He is also involved with legal cases with Clark County Animal Control. He has a "zoo" at home, including a French Bulldog named Odin, two parrots, Finn and Jager, two ferrets, Reason and Single, as well as a tiny desert tortoise, nameless, and a bearded dragon, who is also nameless. Norma Silverman Norma is a cat lover, who rescued and adopted ‘Nutmeg’. She joins us in studio, to share her experiences with the diagnosis, treatment, and ultimately the loss of her special friend, due to complications from Diabetes. Jim Holtz RN Jim is Theresa’s boss in the Hospital Emergency Room. He is a Registered Nurse, and Manager of Critical Care. He has many years of experience as a Medical Professional. Jim tells us how frustrating it was, as a professional who cares for people in the hospital, not to recognize the signs and symptoms of Diabetes in ‘Morgan’ and ‘Gabby’, his four-legged friends at home. What are the odds…not just one dog with Diabetes…but two?    

The Total Tutor Neil Haley and Peter Elvidge will intreview Dr. Bo Brock. Dr. Bo Brock, DVM, loves animals.  He should – he's treated more of them than there are residents in a tiny farming and ranching Texas community where he serves as the owner of Brock Veterinary Clinic.  He purchased the La Mesa, Texas practice in 1992.  His goal was to develop an equine-focused practice.  He went from treating 96 horses his initial year to seeing roughly 11,000 in 2015.  He has a staff of seven. In 2007, he was voted Equine Practitioner of the Year for the state of Texas.  He's an adjunct professor at Texas Tech University and has taught night classes for a decade. He delivered the 2014 Texas Veterinary A&M commencement speech.  He graduated from the same program in 1990, Magna Cum Laude - fourth in his class. Upon graduating, he worked at a mixed-animal practice in Clarendon, Texas and practiced with Dr. Charles Deyhle for a year-and-a-half. He is an active member of American Veterinary Medical Association, American Association of Equine Practitioners, Texas Veterinary Medical Association, and American Quarter Horse Association. He passed the boards and became a member of the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners in 2004 and is one of only 89 members of that distinguished group in the USA.  

Welcome to Bark & Wag 15 Minute Vet Talk – I am your host Polly ReQua Today we are talking to Dr. Kathy Sennello, a Veterinarian at Veterinary Specialty Care in Mount Pleasant, SC. We are discussing the different type of Vet Specialists you can visit with your dog.  Dr. Sennello, thank you for taking the time to talk to all of us.  What is a Veterinary Specialist? What is a Specialist? What type of training do they receive? How do you find one in your area? What is difference between your family Vet, a Specialist and what they offer you and your pet?   Veterinary Specialists A veterinary specialist is a veterinarian who has completed additional training in a specific area of veterinary medicine and has passed an examination that evaluates their knowledge and skills in that specialty area. Currently, there are 22 AVMA-recognized veterinary specialty organizations comprising 41 distinct specialties. Veterinarians can be specialists in behavior, ophthalmology (eye diseases), internal medicine, surgery, dentistry and many more areas. The specialty organizations are referred to as "colleges," but they're not schools or universities. The specialist's expertise complements that of your veterinarian. You may be referred to a veterinary specialist if diagnosing or treating your pet's health problem requires specialized equipment and/or expertise that your veterinarian does not have. It's critical that you, your veterinarian and the veterinary specialist communicate and work together to provide the best care for your pet. Here's a list of veterinary specialties recognized by the American Board of Veterinary Specialties, with very simple descriptions of what these specialists do. For more information about the specialties, click the link to go to the website of the specialty college responsible for certifying veterinarians in that specialty: Anesthesia: veterinarians who focus on making sure animals feel less or no pain associated with veterinary procedures Animal Welfare: veterinarians with specialized training and experience in animal welfare Behavior: veterinarians with additional training in animal behavior Dentistry: veterinarians who perform procedures on animals' teeth Dermatology: veterinarians who study diseases and conditions of the skin Emergency and Critical Care: the "ER docs" and intensive care specialists Internal Medicine, which includes specialties in Cardioloy: the study of diseases and conditions of the heart and circulatory system Neurology: the study of diseases of the brain, spinal cord and other parts of the nervous system Oncology: the study of tumors and cancer Laboratory Animal Medicine: veterinarians working in research or in practice, making sure that laboratory animal species (rabbits, rats, mice, etc.) receive proper care. Microbiology: veterinarians who study viruses, bacteria, fungi, etc. Nutrition: veterinarians working to make sure that animals' diets meet their body's needs for nutrients Ophthalmology: veterinarians studying diseases and conditions of the eye Pathology: veterinarians studying disease in animals Pharmacology: veterinarians studying how medications/drugs affect animals Poultry Veterinarians: veterinarians who work with chickens, turkeys and/or ducks, usually in food production settings Preventive Medicine: veterinarians who study how diseases are spread and how they can be prevented Radiology: veterinarians who focus on the study of x-ray, ultrasound, computed tomography (often called CAT scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and other imaging procedures that allow us to see "inside" an animal's body Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation: veterinarians who focus on returning animals to normal function after injury, lameness, illness or surgery Surgery: veterinarians who specialize in performing surgery. A certified surgeon will be certified in either small animal surgery or large animal surgery. Within these groups, many surgeons will focus their work in one of these two subcategories but are not limited to them: Orthopedics: these surgeons focus on bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, etc. of the body's skeletal system Soft Tissue surgery: these surgeons focus more on the internal organs and non-bone tissues of the body Theriogenology: veterinarians who specialize in animal reproduction Toxicology: veterinarians who study the effects of poisons and other toxic products on the body (and how to treat animals affected by these toxins) Veterinary Practitioners: veterinarians in clinical practice who have additional training and expertise in certain animal species Avian Practice (birds) Equine Practice (horses) Beef Cattle Practice (cattle raised for meat) Feline Practice(cats) Canine/Feline Practice (dogs and cats) Exotic Companion Mammal Practice (ferrets, rabbits, mice, rats and other small mammals often kept as pets) Food Animal Practice (cattle and pigs) Dairy Practice (cows that produce milk) Reptile and Amphibian Practice (snakes, lizards, salamanders, turtles, etc.) Swine Health Management (pigs) Zoological Medicine: veterinarians who work with zoo collection animals, free-living wildlife, aquatic species and companion zoological animals
