Preventative Medicine:
You know what they say, "an ounce of prevention is worth
a pound of cure!" We are committed to preventing disease
and common equine health problems. Seeing your
veterinarian each spring for vaccinations, coggins
tests, and an overall assessment of health, is the best
thing you can do to help prevent illness in your horse.
Dentistry:
We recommend that a horse's teeth be checked at least
once per year for any problems that could interfere with
eating, comfort, or performance. From young to old, we
provide full dental care for all equine life stages. Our
power dental floats allow us to provide simple and
comfortable care to keep your horse happy and healthy.
Emergency:
Our practice provides 24-hour emergency services. As we
all know, horses are good at getting themselves
into all sorts of sticky situations. We are here to
provide immediate emergency care when the need arises.
The emergency pager is 612-534-2086.
Lameness and pre-purchase
examinations:
An understanding of many equine disciplines and sports,
allows us to fully assess your horse's performance
issues and provide treatment when necessary.
Additionally, we can help you thoroughly examine a
potential purchase for any lameness or health concerns.
Diagnostics:
We strive to provide the highest quality of care
available. Weitz Equine has invested in
pertinent technology to aid our assessment and care of
your horse. This includes digital ultrasound, digital x-ray,
upper air-way endoscopy, and blood analyzers.
Our digital x-ray machine allows us to produce the
clearest image as well as the ability to email or burn
images onto CD for use by referral facilities, the
farrier, or potential buyers.
Reproductive Services:
From the breeding, to pregnancy checks, to a thorough
examination of the newborn foal, we can help ensure the
health and well-being of both the mare and foal. |
