It's always a beautiful day at the Morven Park International Equestrian Center. Come out and enjoy the great weather and awesome Eventing competition from 4*L to 1*.

Veterinarians from near and far have assembled to help assure nothing less than the most optimal and safe conditions.

We're seeing lots of visitors, shopping, food trucks, fresh faces, friends, and clients. So come have a great day too.

Every year gets bigger and better for this US Equestrian Open Eventing competition. It takes immense support coming from every angle and level to bring together this magnificent event - and it happened brilliantly. It's even televised on ESPN.

Big kudos to the staff of Morvan Park for always improving the grounds, facilities, and unparalleled maintenance. You make hosting thousands of people and hundreds of horses seem effortless.

Community matters! Well done to the organizers, riders, and sponsors of this year's Piedmont Jumpers at the beautiful Upperville Show Grounds.

Total Equine Veterinary Associates is proud to both sponsor and support this event again this year.

As I walk around as Show Veterinarian saying hello to so many client competitors, I'm continually impressed by your dedication and enthusiasm for this sport.

Come out to the show, say hello, watch some incredible riding pairs, and pet these attention-starved dogs.

Look for these superstars on the road and at your farm. Congratulation them for this great recognition and always know that they are doing their best for you and your horse.

"I could have been killed" - more than once I have said this to myself over the years. Let's not normalize the risks we face everyday.

Attached is a great article bringing awareness to the real physical risks associated with being an equine veterinarian.

- 5x the risk of all professions for work-related injury.

- #2 most at-risk profession ever for injury.

- 90% of us get injured more than once, >25% are hospitalized, every 3 to 4 years during our career.

Check out these infographics and think about the ways that you can help us be safer on your farm.

The eye-opener is WHY we do it - read this article to find out about the various guilts we carry.

That's a wrap! 3 seminars in 3 months. Thank you to the 120+ clients and friends that participated in these educational seminars.

This evening's videos and discussion emphasized identifying, interpreting, and quantifying a horse's subtle signs of pain, and then doing something about it. We should stop saying "it's just him" or "she's done it forever", and look deeper into the "why".

It really is our pleasure bringing these presentations to you. Your energy and enthusiasm to learn fuels our desire to continue.

We're already looking forward to January 2027 and resuming the series.

Join us on Thursday, March 12th, at 6 PM for "Understanding the Ridden Horse Pain Ethogram."

In this session, all four of TEVA's veterinarians will utilize extensive video and photographic examples to share their insights and daily applications of pain scoring. This approach aims to enhance your understanding of your horse's behavioral signals, facilitate actionable diagnoses, and promote earlier intervention strategies. A handout will be provided.

The seminar will run from 6 PM to 7:30 PM and is complimentary for all attendees. It will take place in the Hofmann Classroom at Morven Park Equestrian Center, with refreshments included.

Please Vote!

Total Equine Veterinary Associates made the cut as the only equine veterinary practice within the "Best of...[Pets] Veterinary Practices" catagory.

I don't remember if ever a horse-only vet practice has ever won, yet it's a huge honor to be considered in this mix of so many great small animal veterinary practices.

Good luck TEVA!

What an incredible gathering of horse owners with a thirst for learning about colic!

The energy in the room was palpable, fueled by insightful questions and dynamic exchanges. It was a privilege to share the Hofmann Classroom at Morven Park with such a remarkable group of almost 60 attendees. Every discussion was a testament to their collective wisdom and shared passion.

Highlights included the anatomy demonstration using a horse skull, tubing, ducting, hoses, and a mop tail to represent the 100+ feet of the equine gastrointestinal system and the colic surgery video. We did some Myth-Busting and listened to additional commentary from TEVA's entire veterinary team. It was an informative and creative evening!

We are truly grateful for this opportunity to connect. Let's keep this learning momentum going! See you in March.
