Fantastic News!

The USEF has just passed a rule change limiting the vaccine requirements set by horse show organizers to those in line with recommendations put forth by both vaccine manufacturer's and the American Association of Equine Practitioners, i.e. vaccination for Influenza and Rhinopneumonitis every 6 months. This new rule will be in effect in 2016.  Thank you to all the Bayhill clients for participating in our survey this fall that helped to ensure the passing of this important rule.

New Educational Series

Picture
This summer, Dr. Zdimal has been hosting a weekly educational series with the children attending the California Riding Academy summer horsemanship camp. This has been a fun learning event that will hopefully inspire some of these children to become our future veterinarians. In addition to working with the California Riding Academy, Dr. Zdimal also educates the riders of the Portola Valley Pony club on topics like general horsemanship, routine medical care, lameness and conformation.



Client Education Seminar

The client educational seminar was an opportunity for Bayhill to work closely with our clients discussing critical situations in a non-emergency environment. The basics of a physical exam, wound management, and bandaging were all discussed. 


Each participant received their own stethoscope, thermometer, and laminated reference sheets listing the normal horse parameters. This was a fun event and we look forward to organizing more seminars in the future.



Highlights from Thermal

This was the first time that Dr. Browning spent the entire 8 weeks down at the HITS Thermal horse show. And what a busy 8 weeks it was! Many pre-purchases and pre-lease exams in addition to the normal happenings at any horse show. Weather was all over the place culminating with 100+ temps during the last week. Dr. Browning really enjoyed seeing so many Bayhill clients do so well at such a large venue, including Simone Otus Coxe’s Mr. Whoopy’s 2nd place finish in the $1,000,000 Grand Prix!


Dr. Browning Serves as Team Veterinarian at the 2010 World Equestrian Games

Picture
Dr. Browning was one of approximately 140 veterinarians worldwide to serve as a Team Veterinarian at the 2010 World Equestrian Games in Lexington, Kentucky. 

“It was an amazing honor to serve as the Team Veterinarian for the New Zealand Show Jumping team. The caliber of the horses and riders in all disciplines was incredible. The World Equestrian Games and the Olympics alternate competition every two years and represent the highest level of equine competition. You realize that when McLain Ward’s Sapphire is stabled right across from you and Rodrigo Pessoa and the rest of the Brazilian team are right next to you in your shed row. "

Dr. Zdimal was also the UC Davis student representative at the 2010 World Equestrian Games. She worked side by side with FEI team veterinarians of varying disciplines throughout the entire event. To get an idea of what it was like working on cross-country day, click on the link below. 

Dr. Zdimal gives a first hand report on what it was like attending to a horse injured on the cross-country course and then transporting it in a horse ambulance.
