Tuesdays with Tony – The Recipe to Foaling
For the record, I did not choose to jump on the phantom for this week's photo. I was forced to pose there by my humans- hence the look of displeasure on my face. That being said, my Breeding & Foaling Seminar this month was one of the best-attended educational...
Tuesdays with Tony-2016: The Year in Colics
Colics. We see a heck of a lot of them. Now a decent amount of those colics can be attributed to the fairly ridiculous design of the equine GI tract. I mean, honestly, who thought that was a good idea? However, I spent my weekend pouring through the computer to look...
Tuesdays with Tony – Big Burly Men
Last Wednesday evening was an atypical night for me. There was pizza, which is always a plus. But then about a half dozen big burly men with a bunch of tools showed up, pulling trailers with--get this--built-in furnaces! The docs called them Farriers. Turns out all...

Tuesdays with Tony – A Tale of Three Lacerations
Quick shout out to all the UF Vet students, our Docs, and our amazing Clinic staff for an awesome Castration Clinic 2016. The world got nine new geldings on Saturday, and a whole bunch of vet students learned how to make more geldings. Of course, the highlight of...
Tuesdays with Tony – Electricity
First and foremost I need to apologize to all of you, my loyal followers for posting this late. I got caught up in finalizing my Christmas Wish List so my minions know exactly what to get me this year, to ensure I don't receive the same lame bag of treats.....again...
