Littleton Large Animal Vets
This week, Dr. Dunbar and her assistant Alicia came to do a fall vet check. This care and community group was able to watch and ask questions.
Both of the horses, Hercules and Dealer got their teeth checked and floated. They both got fall shots, deworming medication, and had their eyes checked. Looks like Dealer needs some follow up checks on his 
, but his cancer is progressing much slower due to treatments!

Visitors from Care and Community get to talk to Dr. Dunbar about why horses have to have their teeth filed and why it is important for everyone to brush their teeth!
Dr. Dunbar and her very capable assistant Alisha start working on the horses teeth with the supervision of Angle, Dealers best goat friend.
Alisha was singing Dealer a wake up song as he was waking up from mild sedation.
Hercules gets the same treatment as Dealer to get his teeth floated, his sheath cleaned, his injured eye inspected and his fall shots.
Final check for Hercules teeth.
We thank you Dr. Dunbar for the one stop to check up on all of our animals and provide necessary treatment.
The best news was when Dr. Dunbar checked on Dealer injured eye, and she believes the cancer in his eye is diminishing! We are thankful that the daily oral treatment Carnivora seems to be helping and will continue to use this treatment. She took pictures and will share it with Dr. Lamus from Littleton Vet and Dr. Montabalano who specializes in eye cancer. We are hoping to hear good news.
