About Us
Report
Our story began with two people and their love and connection for all horses.
Dr. Sweet's love for horses began at a young age on his family ranch.
He would drive his family's mules through the parades and earned quite a reputation for his excellent horsemanship skills.
Carole grew up with a fond connection with horses.
As a kid she would be gone all day riding on the back of her beloved stead.
Through their love and passion for horses our establishment has grown to the medical facility our clients know and trust.

Castration
Report
Equine castration is the most common surgical procedure performed on horses.
Not only does it prevent unwanted breeding, but it can also dramatically improve the behavior and management of your horse.
Equine castration usually takes place in either the spring or autumn months in order to avoid bacteria-carrying flies in the summer and the mud of winter.
Traditionally, castration is carried out in a horse's yearling year, but there is no reason why the procedure cannot be undertaken at other times.

Endoscopy
Report
When a person or animal is unwell, external symptoms and blood test results may only tell a small part of the story.
Advances in medical technology mean that it is now possible to see what is actually happening inside you, and one of these procedures is known as an endoscopy.
An endoscopy can be used to view and analyze many parts of a horse including the upper respiratory tract, and parts of the gastrointestinal, reproductive and urinary tracts.
This helps veterinarians to make an accurate diagnosis and recommendation for treatment for a wide range of health problems.

Lameness and Sports Medicine
Report
Lameness is one of the most prevalent problems presented to equine veterinarians.
The term is used to describe an abnormal gait or stance due to the animal feeling pain or experiencing a restriction in the normal range of movement caused by underlying mechanical or neurological problems.
The pain or restriction can originate from any part of the body such as the hoof, the leg or neck.
The degree of severity can vary from a mild change in gait to completely preventing the horse from using or bearing weight on the affected limb.
