Everyone in this photo was in 4-H. 🍀

For Thankful Thursday during National 4-H Week, we’re recognizing six members of our Farm Animal Hospital team whose early experiences with animals and agriculture helped shape the work they do today.

From veterinary medicine and veterinary technology to animal care and client support, they now bring those experiences to the Purdue University Veterinary Farm Animal Hospital.

Front: McKenzie Young, RVT, veterinary technician; Heather Bornheim, DVM, MS, DACVIM (LAIM); and Laura May, DVM, DABVP

Back: Sophie Leuck, receptionist; Michael Rice, veterinary assistant; and Lauren Brown, veterinary assistant

This year’s 4-H Week theme is “Beyond Ready.” Their paths are one example of where 4-H experiences can lead.

Laminitis can become a serious and painful problem for horses. 🐴

The condition affects the laminae, the structures that connect the hoof wall to the bones inside the hoof. When those structures are damaged, the support within the hoof can weaken and, in severe cases, the coffin bone may rotate or sink.

Common triggers can include:

🐴 Insulin dysregulation and equine metabolic syndrome
🌱 Excess carbohydrates from grain or lush pasture
🌳 Exposure to toxins such as black walnut shavings
🦵 Excessive weight-bearing on one limb because of injury to another

Signs can include increased digital pulses, warm hooves, reluctance to walk, repeated weight shifting and a “sawhorse” stance.

Early recognition matters. If your horse develops signs of hoof pain or difficulty moving, contact your veterinarian promptly.

A career talk turned into a mini autograph session. ✍️😊

Megan L. Brashear, BS, RVT, VTS (ECC), and Tami L. Lind, BS, RVT, VTS (ECC), recently visited veterinary technology students at Fox College to talk about careers in academic veterinary medicine.

The students had plenty of questions, and Megan received quite the welcome. Several recognized her from her work in veterinary technology education, asked for photos and even brought over a few things for her to sign.

Thanks to the Fox College students for such a fun visit and for spending time talking with Megan and Tami about the veterinary technology profession. 💛

Four weeks after hip surgery, Moe was out walking with his owner.

The 15-year-old American Miniature Horse was referred to Purdue University Equine Hospital after a dog attack caused multiple bite wounds and a dislocated hip. His primary care veterinarians at Janssen Veterinary Clinic stabilized him before the emergency referral.

At Purdue, Moe’s wounds were treated and he underwent a femoral head ostectomy (FHO), which removed the damaged portion of his hip joint. Rehabilitation began while he was still in the hospital.

Moe’s Purdue care team included:

• Dr. Danielle Cucuzella and surgical resident Dr. Kaitlyn Coleman, who performed the FHO and developed his postoperative rehabilitation program
• Dr. Seiji Yoshimura, who continued wound care and used CT imaging to help guide his care after surgery
• Fourth-year student Riley Eder, who assisted throughout treatment, including teaching Moe his daily range-of-motion exercises
• Surgical assistants Micah Black and Sarah Larson, who assisted with procedures and provided postoperative care during his hospitalization

Moe is now home continuing his customized rehabilitation program.
