New to the farm in 2005, is the Equine Rehabilitation Wing.
Our Emergency Veterinary Station is a full equine veterinary
treatment facility. This specially designed room also doubles as a
research library with an extensive collection of health related
equine videos, poster-size illustration charts and veterinary books.
Vintage turn-of-the-century veterinary instruments, books, and
memorabilia, adorns the walls, adding character and colour to this
practical and educational centre. In addition, the farm has access
to 24 hour on-call emergency veterinary care. The farm has recently
acquired a variable speed treadmill for conditioning of muscles and
tendons. This new tool will add to a more speedy recovery and
conditioning of horses. If you are in need, feel free to contact us
for assistance.
