Equine Veterinary Services in Soda Springs, Idaho
Honest Horse Care, Rooted in Community
Horses are part of everyday life in Caribou County, from weekend rodeos to 4-H projects to the family gelding out in the pasture. At Soda Springs Animal Clinic, we provide equine care that’s practical, respectful, and built on long-term partnership.
We offer both farm calls across the county and a haul-in facility in Soda Springs. Our indoor exam stocks provide a safe, well-lit setting for floats, wound care, lameness exams, and castrations. This space makes visits less stressful for horses and safer for everyone involved.
Core Equine Services
Preventive & Wellness Care
Simple steps now mean fewer problems later.
Good horse care starts with prevention. Routine visits help us spot changes early, protect against serious disease, and keep your horse ready for work, play, or competition.
What’s Included in a Wellness Visit
Every equine wellness exam covers the essentials:
- Full physical exam (eyes, teeth, heart, lungs, abdomen, skin, weight, joints, mobility)
- Core vaccination review and administration as needed (EWT, West Nile, rabies, and more)
- Nutrition and weight assessment with practical recommendations
- Coggins testing and interstate health certificates
- Parasite control planning, including deworming recommendations tailored to your horse and environment
- Annual checkups for every horse
- Before traveling, showing, or hauling out of state
- Spring and fall, when vaccine and deworming schedules matter most

Why Equine Wellness Matters
These visits aren’t just about what we do. They’re about what we can catch early:
- Dental disease before it affects eating or performance
- Skin infections or wounds before they worsen
- Lameness before it becomes chronic
- Parasite issues before they impact weight or energy
- Subtle changes that can affect safety, breeding, or competition
