Diet Coke Sedeka

Sedeka, owned by Lorraine Hunter was dull, depressed and off her food.  After thorough investigation Sedeka was found to have a mass of undigested food attached to her stomach lining.  Diet coke was introduced through a nasopharangeal tube.  The diet coke dissolved the mass that we were then able to flush from her stomach.  I am happy to report Sedeka is doing well at home

Chad ( or santa in disguise)

Kirsty

Kirsty is owned by Rhoni McDonald.  Kirsty was found by her owners down in the field, cold and wet.  Our vet Daisy Bircham attended Kirsty and found her to be suffering from colic and exposure.   Kirsty was administered emergency first aid then referred to the clinic. Kirsty was placed on inravenous fluids to correct her dehydration and help treat the colic.  After two days of intensive care treatment Kirsty was well enough to return home.

Rhoni has reported that Kirsty is doing well and back to her normal wild self.

17/04/09- Kirsty is doing great and recently gave birth to Isadora...a beautiful filly. Congratulations from all at The Equine Veterinary Clinic.
