Our appointment book is always open which allows us to efficiently make appointments for you and your horse. We will attempt to accommodate all requests to the best of our ability. Emergencies are accepted anytime. If you feel you have an emergency with your horse, please call immediately so the doctor can advise you on your particular emergency.

Routine & Dental Care
Dr. Frehner is available for all of your horses routine medical care-vaccines, well check, worming, foals, etc. And he specializes in Equine Dentistry. All of these needs can be performed at your own home or boarding facility and most procedures are done in the horses own stall.

Emergency & Urgent Care
Dr. Frehner is available 7 days a week to handle any emergency care your horse may have. Emergencies can be things such as colic (belly ache), lacerations or sickness. If you ever feel that your horse needs emergency treatment, do not hesitate to call immediately.

We are also available for urgent care when the condition is not life-threatening. If you feel your horse needs to be seen before you are able to get an appointment, our veterinarian will work to “squeeze” you in between scheduled appointments.
