Report
If you recognize any of the signs above your pet most likely has skin and/or environmental allergies.
Allergies are an overactive and inappropriate response to normal things that your pet comes in contact with.
In the end, allergies decrease your pet's quality of life by tearing up their skin and making them feel miserable.
In fact, more than 70% of dogs with skin allergies will also have ear infections that reoccur with treatment that is not focused on treating the allergies.
It is so easy to get lost when you have a dog with allergies because they can present with a lot of other issues that seem to be important when in reality, they are just distractions that take your attention away from the root problem which is allergies.

Stem Cell
Report
Stem cell research is an emerging field that is clouded in a lot of controversy.
A stem cell is a young cell that is not yet specialized.
The beauty of stem cells is they can become any tissue in the body.
Since stem cells are used by the body to make new tissues, naturally, veterinarians have sought after the ability to harvest stem cells and use them to target their efforts to regenerate damaged tissue.
With our revolutionary techniques, we are able to isolate stem cells from the animal's own fat cells.

Lameness
Report
Lameness is common among all animals.
The question you have to ask yourself is, is the animal able to perform the function I need them to perform pain free.
For example, can your horse run how you know they can run?
Does it break out of the gates fast and straight?
Is your dog jumping in the truck like he used to?
Can your bull mount your cows?
Can your mare support your stud when he mounts?
Can your bull buck and make his turns like you need him to?
Is your horse able to make every turn smooth and even around each barrel?

Colic
Report
Colic is one of the main causes of death in horses.
Colic refers to pain in the abdomen.
We use this term in horses to refer to any condition that causes abdominal pain.
It is analogous to a stomach ache in humans.
There are many reasons why one might colic.
In any case colic is to be considered and emergency and your animal needs to see a veterinarian for evaluation.
When colic is diagnosed early it is many times more likely to have a positive outcome.
An abdominal surgery is very traumatic to the animal so we make every effort to avoid surgery when possible.
