All About Pets Veterinary Hospital

Preventive Care

Dental Care
The need for dental care in older horses or those with poor bites has been recognized throughout the years. Only recently have the benefits of performance dentistry in our working horses been widely accepted. Various health issues and physical discomfort can arise from poor tooth condition. Maintenance dentistry is an integral part of a complete preventative healthcare plan for horses young and old. Our goal is to maintain a horse’s mouth to prevent sharp points and discomfort from ever developing. Many of the horses we see, however, have not had their mouths maintained regularly and are in need of correction for the problems that have developed due to wear. Our doctors have received specialized training and have extensive experience in the area of dentistry and are equipped with specialized motorized and hand equipment to make the necessary changes that each horse requires.

Vaccination
3) If a soft tissue injury is suspected (tendon, muscle or ligament) apply cold water immediately for 15 – 20 minutes and repeat at 1 – 2 hour intervals.
Veterinary Ophthalmology
Comprehensive Examination
A thorough examination prior to purchasing a new horse is essential to disclose any existing health or lameness issues to assist the buyer in determining if the horse would be suitable for their intended use. Our purchase exams include an evaluation of the horse’s general health by a complete physical examination as well as a gait evaluation and assessment of any existing lameness, previous injuries, behavior and conformation. The exam can be basic or can include radiographs, laboratory evaluations or any other procedures requested by the buyer or deemed necessary by the doctor.

Wound and Fracture Care
Dr. Kerry Rapacz is a graduate of Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine. She spent the last 3 years practicing at an equine hospital in central California. Prior to moving to California Dr. Kerry completed an internship at Southwest Equine Medical and Surgical Center in Scottsdale, AZ. Dr. Kerry is a member of the International Society of Equine Locomotor Pathology. She is also certified to perform Andalusian Inscriptions for the Spanish Stud Book. Dr. Kerry's professional interests include internal medicine, ultrasound evaluation, ophthalmology, and reproduction. She has received additional training in dentistry at UC Davis, ultrasound of the hock and stifle, lameness evaluation, hoof health, wound care, and other areas of equine medicine and surgery. When she is not working you will find her riding her horse or hiking with her husband and two dogs.

Laboratory Services
The foundation of a good preventative health plan for your horse is establishment of sound and consistent nutrition, routine vaccination and de-worming and regular dental maintenance. We establish our protocols individually for each patient and choose products based on efficacy with the least amount of potential side effects. Despite a good preventative maintenance plan some diseases in the horse cannot be prevented. For these cases, should they be needed, we have available extensive laboratory services, including blood chemistry profiles, complete blood cell counts and pathogen cultures.
