Equine news from Tay Valley Vets
Keep up-to-date with all the latest equine news from our team.
Read moreWe have two spacious indoor loose boxes to accommodate your horse while they are with us. Our nurses are on hand to assist and they themselves are horse owners too.
Lameness examinations take place in a secure area with both hard and soft trot ups and a smooth hard surface for assessing lameness when lunged. This area is large enough to accommodate trailers with ample turning room.
We are proud to offer our clients ultrasound scanning, digital x-rays and endoscopy. We regularly carry out tendon and reproductive ultrasound scans on visits and at our premises.
We undertake simple surgical procedures (geldings, hernia repair, sinus trephination) and refer more complicated cases to Glasgow or Edinburgh vet schools with whom we have a close working relationship. We also refer cases on to the Clyde Vet Equine Hospital in Lanarkshire.
