Border Equine

Colic is one of the most common emergencies we treat at Border Equine—and early action can save your horse’s life.

Watch for signs like pawing, rolling, looking at the belly, or not eating. If something feels off, don’t wait.

📞 Call Border Equine right away—our doctors are ready to respond when your horse needs us most.

P.S. Baby was protecting mama the whole time 😁

Last week we had the great pleasure of hosting Carrizo High School Ag Class for a tour with Dr. Vaden! Students got to experience equine veterinary medicine up close—learning, asking questions, and even seeing real cases in action.

We’re proud to support and inspire the future of our industry! 🐴✨
