What our clients say

I only moved to the area 6 months ago and have already had Bruno out to the property a handful of times to see my horse, he really knows his stuff!! When my boy cut his leg, Bruno let me send weekly photos to make sure it was healing okay. The last time he was here my boy had a swollen eye, I was a panicky mess – Bruno was here easily within the hour! I’m so glad he’s our vet!! Total trust in him!!

- Kate Elvy

Our young horse sustained a fairly significant injury on Boxing Day and Bruno answered our call immediately. He gave thorough instructions over the phone as to how we should manage her and came and treated her on Boxing Day afternoon. Bruno has impeccable technique and is generous with his time. After a second visit our filly is now healing well. I can’t recommend Bruno highly enough.

Laminitis is one of the most common causes of equine lameness we see. It can be a severely debilitating disease and lead to the horse’s death in some cases.

Worming your horses

One of the most common questions that arises with horse owners is worming of their horse, and rightly so, as it’s an important basic facet of horse husbandry. However, misinformation and glossy marketing from several big pharmaceutical companies have contributed to poor use of our deworming drugs to the point there is now widespread drug resistance, and this will be devastating for our horses when we’re unable to treat basic conditions like intestinal worms.
