Colic Epidemic...

It seems like it isn't a good week to be a horse...

We've had 3 colic cases live at the vet clinic this week...

We got one Monday that came in until Wednesday and it was on IVs, then Thursday another one came in(very handsome boy) and he left late this afternoon(Saturday) and an hour after him ANOTHER came in...

Poor guys. But so far they're all going home ok, so hopefully it will be with this new guy and hopefully we won't get anymore.

Good luck....
