Binky & Boysie’s Blog Update

It has been a busy time since I became Station House Vets Young Ambassador. Here’s a few things Boysie and the rest of the gang and I have been up to.

At the beginning of March we went to Manor Grange Stud for some freestyle dressage we “danced” to the music of Lion King (which me and Boysie love!!) This gained us a goood score and 1st place! The day after it was to Holmside in Durham for the BD Combined Training qualifier, once again Boysie tried his little heart out and won the class having done a nice test and clear sj . This gained us a ticket to Champs!

The following weekend it was road trip time to Aston Le Walls in Northamptonshire for BRC Arena Eventing champs. Boysie and I were part of a team for Malton Riding club. My team mates all rode really well and our ponies all jumped fab for us to be placed team 3rd out of about 30 teams from all around the UK- boysie and I also picked up individual 6th!!

Later on that week Amelia from Station House Vets came and castrated Storm, our yearling, and vaccinated Boysie and took a poo sample for the worming program. I also recieved my super SHV jacket and saddle pad!

Then it was to Snainton for a training session with Charlotte Wilson . That weekend it was to Northallaton for the NSEA JWS where me and boysie parted company! (Whoops!!)

The weekend after it was to Port Royal for BD. Another successful BD trip out.

   

The 1st of April brought a new life to the world. Summer safely delivered ‘Skyes The Limit’ our little dun filly! Skye is very cute but also very sassy!

After not much sleep it was back to Port Royal for BRC Combined training qualifier 3rd after dressage meant we had to jump clear to be in with a chance!  Boysie jumped amazing with a clear round gaining us the win and another road trip to Aston Le Walls in May!

Amelia then came out to check Skye and Summer over and gave them both the thumbs up .

We also went to a super talk at Station House about lameness and treatments; Clare also showed us some horses legs and the tendons, it was really interesting, and the food was really yummy!!

Watch out for our next update!

World veterinary day

Today is World Veterinary Day – a day to celebrate the amazing work that our veterinary surgeons & nurses do every day of the year!
 
This years theme is veterinary resilience.
 
Veterinary resilience is the ability to effectively respond to and recover from adverse events. It is vital for veterinarians, veterinary staff, and animal owners worldwide. By building resilience in our veterinary community, we can improve preparedness for future challenges and better protect animals and human health.
 
Many factors can affect veterinary resilience. These include personal factors, such as personality and coping strategies; professional factors, such as workload and job satisfaction; and environmental factors, such as support from colleagues and management.
 
World Veterinary Day 2022 is a perfect opportunity to raise awareness of veterinary resilience and its importance.
 
It’s an opportunity to thank the team for their ongoing resilience in such a tough hard working environment which is both physically and emotionally challenging in so many ways every single day! The veterinary team really are remarkable and appear to have super powers – but we mustn’t forget that they are human beings too!
 
Feel free to share your support for the Station House Vets veterinary team today by visiting our Facebook page and adding a comment or a Review of the team.

Covid-19 Arrangements
 
As of today, we no longer require you to wear masks when you are visiting the practice.
 
However, if you wish to continue to wear a mask, please feel free to do so.
 
We will continue to monitor the situation and update you should there be any changes to this.
 
Thank you once again for your patience and support in the last two years. It really has been appreciated by every single member of the team.
From next Wednesday (27th April) we are pleased to be able to offer K Laser therapy clinics for your pets.
 
Laser therapy provides a non-invasive, pain-free, surgery-free and drug-free treatment that is used to treat a variety of conditions.
 
K Laser therapy is beneficial for pets as below:
Pain management : laser therapy is a non-invasive therapy used instead of or as well as  drug therapy for the treatment of chronic pain. Osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of chronic pain
 
Wound healing : laser therapy can significantly reduce healing time, while at the same time improving the quality of tissue (more proliferation of normal cells, less tension and scar formation) traumatic skin injuries and surgical incisions benefit greatly from laser intervention

 

Rehab : bone and muscle injuries and orthopaedic surgeries often require additional rehabilitation solutions. Laser therapy provides a non-invasive treatment for quicker recovery.
The K Lazer clinics are being run by Anicare Laser Solutions with appointments booked by calling us on  01653 618303.
To find out more you can visit Anicare Laser Solution’s website.
Easter is nearly upon us. Our Easter opening hours are listed below.
As usual we will be here for you and your pets 24 hours per day – call 01209 823717.
Alternatively if it is not urgent but you need your pet to see a vet, we do have two short clinics open over the long weekend.
Call us on 01653 618303 if you need to make an appointment.
station house vets easter hours
Last night we had our first equine evening for 3 years. It was so good to be able to get everyone together again and chat about latest treatment options for lameness in horses.
 
Clare & Amelia put on a fantastic presentation about the various options, along with an ultrasound demonstration, ably assisted by model Jack (owned by Ellie Grayson – thanks Ellie & Jack).
Refreshments were provided by Dogh Welburn and were kindly sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim – thanks to Megan & Elspeth.
Thank you also to everyone who came and supported us and got involved. Your donations to our Ukraine appeal also helped us raise a further £180 in our raffle – which will be drawn at the end of April.
 
Anyone wishing to enter the raffle can do so by visiting our Justgiving page : www.justgiving.com/fundraising/stationhousevets
If anyone is interested in proposing subjects for other equine events please email us: rachel@stationhousevets.co.uk

After launching our new logo back in December, we have been moving everything over to the  new look.

This week we’ve updated all our signage to the new logo and look and we are delighted with the outcome.

They are bright, informative and extremely attractive!

We hope you like them too and they help new visitors to the practice find their way easily any time day or night!

Many thanks to Fastsigns York who designed and installed the signs for us, and Superfly Marketing who designed our amazing logo which just looks fantastic on everything we do.
