CONSULTANCY & VET WORK
Work.
During the 2007 off season (Feb – July) I enjoyed 7 weeks of locum work in Victoria and Tasmania. I travelled to Arnham land to work in two indigenous communities with a remote area dog program. I have since joined both AMRRIC and VBB (Animal management in Regional and Remote Indigenous Communities and Vets Beyond Borders). These organisations do a great deal of good within Australia and overseas (VBB). I hope to work with them in 2007 and 2008. I then went to the Bain Fallon equine veterinary conference in Perth, Western Australia where I gained new knowledge on Cushing’s disease and equine metabolic syndrome. I stayed on for an extra week working for many clients from my Uni days. Back in Victoria for the equine stud season no one could have anticipated the Equine Influenza outbreak and the effect it would have on the industry. It has been devastating and at the time of writing Victoria was still EI free. I extend sympathy to those affected in NSW and QLD. I have decided to go it alone at last and I am currently setting up my own mobile veterinary business in Northern Victoria, Australia. I hope to visit some of the smaller communities within a few hours drive, that do not have a veterinarian, on a regular basis. I am still available for short-term veterinary locum work (< 4 weeks). I look forward to doing more teaching and running farriery seminars now that I will have more freedom and may now be contacted direct on my mobile phone (refer to contact me from home page). I still manage to visit my farriery clients and their horses around all this.

Teaching vets and farriers in Thailand was very rewarding. |

I can visit you and your horse or visit your local area as a vet and farrier. If you can organise several people who also have horses they would like me to see you may be able to divide the travel and accommodation costs between you. Organising a talk for your local horse club and charging a fee is another way to cover costs. I can come to your area to run a seminar for you and treat severe cases while I am there. I will charge for work done for individuals. I am also interested in working in remote areas that are finding it hard to get a horse vet.
Contact me with your idea and I will get back to you with an estimate of costs. I am happy to work in with your local vets and farriers if they are willing. If possible I would prefer to organise trips for weekends. Contact me by post or e-mail

In 2008 I traveled to W.A, Tasmania and Northern Territory (AMRRIC Dog Health Program) again.
In 2009 assisted after Black Saturday Fires (After the Fire Storm documentary) and again traveled to several states.

How you can help me or I can help you.
I am always searching for new information, and I am happy to hear from you about your products or services or your best treatments (vets and farriers). If you have found something on the web that you think I should know about you are welcome to e-mail your information to me, judith@farriervet.com and I will check it out. Please note I fit this in around my "day" job so it may take me a little while to get back to you. For example, much of the information I have learned about the use of Vitex agnus cactus has been researched for me by clients with horses with Equine Cushings disease. Also a great deal of information over the years on club feet, laminitis and other farriery web sites, has been found by my farriery clients who have more time than I do and can sift through the enormous amount of information for me.
If I receive some information that I think the rest of the horse world should share I will gladly add it to the information on this site, or add your information to the recommended links and addresses page or write about the topic. I might start a "best snippets of information & horse facts", that have been sent in by the public section. Who knows what we may learn!
