Misty Valley Equine is the name of my veterinary practice. The vast majority of my practice is devoted to diagnosing and treating performance horse lameness issues.

Wry nose

This is a congenital (existing at birth) deviation of the nasal septum that causes labored breathing due to collapse of the nostrils and increased breathing noises. Some of these foals are humanely euthanized because the have diffuculty eating or develop aspiration pneumonia. This fella is coping well. Posted by Picasa
