This release was published on openPR.WEST FARGO — When Happy, a sweet but oblivious-to-danger 9-year-old mare scraped up her back leg once again, owner Alicia Severson was able to call on Casselton Veterinary Service to visit her Gandin, N.D., farm and patch up Happy. But when it comes to a recurring ligament injury Happy sustained while competing in a barrel competition, Severson and many other horse and farm animal owners are finding it more difficult every year to find big animal veterinarians, and especially ones that specialize in certain care. ADVERTISEMENT "There is absolutely a shortage," Severson said. For decades, ranchers have been sounding the alarm about a shortage of rural veterinarians and new big animal vets, and especially those who specialize in caring for horses, cows, pigs and sheep. The problem persists despite land grant universities such as North Dakota State University, who often send undergraduates interested in the profession to far-away schools for continuing education. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture , 500 counties across 46 states reported critical shortages of big animal vets. And while large animal veterinarians have long been a challenge to find in rural areas, where they are most needed, veterinarians who specialize in horses are also waning. That's despite the increasing popularity and availability in North Dakota and Minnesota for younger generations to compete in equine activities. According to an online database, about 43,200 horses call North Dakota home, which is about one horse per 18 people in the state. Leon Glasser, president of the North Dakota Quarter Horse Racing Association, has been breeding, raising and racing horses for more than 40 years, working to improve the quality of racehorses born in North Dakota. Over the years, he's watched the number of veterinarians willing to work with horses dwindle quickly. "Are we short of equine vets in this area? Absolutely, we are," Glasser said. He said a veterinary clinic in New Salem, N.D., will now only provide simple paperwork needed for owners to transport horses across state lines for care and Missouri Valley Vet Clinic in Bismarck has also limited equine services in the same way. Most newer veterinarians prefer to work on dogs and cats exclusively, he said. ADVERTISEMENT Severson agreed, noting it is also difficult to find a veterinarian who has experience treating goats, as the Seversons have two goats at their farm along with the horses and a cat. For Happy's ligament issue, of which she's had recurring surgeries and needs sporadic treatment, Severson worked with an equine sports medicine specialist based in the Twin Cities but would travel into western Minnesota. However, that veterinarian recently retired, leaving Severson on the hunt to find another specialist within a few hundred miles of the Red River Valley. "Nothing takes the place of a seasoned veterinarian," Severson said. "Thankfully, Casselton [Veterinary Service] is fabulous when it comes to when my horse is injured. But when it comes to long-term stuff that she's dealing with, it's difficult." Access to education and access to vets Dr. Alexa Weyer at Casselton Veterinary grew up in Snohomish, Wash., a farm town north of Seattle, and graduated with a bachelor's degree in biology from the University of North Dakota before finishing her doctorate in Veterinary Medicine at Auburn University in Alabama. Following graduation, she began working at Casselton Veterinary in early 2021. "There is definitely a shortage of people interested in large animal practice, and we would love to see more interest," Weyer said. To be a veterinarian requires a doctorate degree from a veterinary school or program accredited by the American Veterinary Medical Association and passing the North American Veterinary Licensing Exam, which is an extensive 360-question exam on all species (dogs, cats, horses, cows, goats, pigs, birds, reptiles, rabbits, fish and more) and all aspects of veterinary medicine. ADVERTISEMENT Veterinarians can choose to either go straight into general practice after graduation or they can seek further education to become a specialist. To be a veterinarian technician requires a two- or four-year veterinary technology degree, depending on the program. Derine Winning, a veterinarian at Valley Veterinary Hospital in Fargo and public policy adviser for the North Dakota Veterinary Medical Association, said the vast majority — about 70% — of new graduate veterinarians became companion animal practitioners in 2023. Almost 10% became mixed animal practitioners and only 6% became equine practitioners. The data comes from the American Veterinary Medical Association's 2024 Economic State of the Profession Report. "There are a lot of different areas in which veterinarians can become board certified through advanced education and training," Winning said. Animal specialists of any kind can be difficult to find locally, although Winning said the Red River Animal and Emergency Hospital and Referral Center in Fargo does have some specialists in oncology, surgery, internal medicine and emergency and critical care. Casselton Veterinary provides many large animal services from emergency on-call care to posting a doctor and technician for nights and weekends. In addition to their vets traveling to farms, the clinic has a large treatment area with two stocks and stalls for hospitalization and breeding care. The clinic also has several portable imaging tools. Weyer said the trend of vets moving away from rural areas can be seen in the growing need for referrals. "Unfortunately, most referral facilities across the country for large and small animals are in areas of high population density. For large animals, there are even fewer facilities and they tend to be at universities with veterinary schools or in areas of high equine concentration," she said. ADVERTISEMENT While the Casselton doctors work with a variety of places for specialty referrals, Sturgis Equine in western South Dakota and the University of Minnesota are probably most used by the clinic. Still, the closest drive is about four hours. Weyer said referrals are typically needed for colic surgery, arthroscopic surgery, advanced imaging or advanced hospitalizations. "In general practice like we are, there are always times to refer. For our clients, it would be nice to have a closer option, but a lot of areas in the country are even farther from referral than we are," Weyer said. Beth Carlson, deputy veterinarian with the North Dakota Department of Agriculture, said rural areas most in need of large animal veterinarians may not attract college graduates with those abilities. "The ratio of large animal veterinarians has shifted quite a bit," Carlson said. "Certainly there are areas of the state where it is difficult to hire veterinarians for a variety of reasons. In some cases it's challenging to hire veterinarians even in urban areas as well." One challenge is the cost of becoming a veterinarian. The USDA offers a program that provides up to $75,000 in veterinary school loan repayment to graduates who agree to work in underserved rural communities a minimum of three years. While some in Congress have recently proposed increasing that amount, it can still be daunting as new veterinarians, on average, face about $190,000 in school debt over the eight years needed to become a veterinarian. ADVERTISEMENT According to the American Veterinary Medicine Association, the mean starting salary for a veterinarian working predominantly in the treatment of food animals is about $85,000, but it was more than $100,000 for those who specialize in pet care. The North Dakota Department of Agriculture does work with residents interested in attending veterinary school. Carlson said her office assists with applications for veterinary loan repayment programs. "There are a few different ways that the state and federal government has approached that issue," Carlson said. While NDSU has a veterinarian technician program, there are currently no veterinary schools in North Dakota. In fact, there are only about 30 veterinary schools nationwide. The closest to North Dakota and some of the most renowned veterinary medicine schools are the University of Minnesota, University of Iowa and Kansas State. "NDSU is a great agricultural school and has a great veterinary technician program," Weyer said. "It might be nice to have a veterinary doctorate program at NDSU, but I am not sure that the population is there yet to support one."Struggling to score away from home in Europe is certainly no longer a concern for Arsenal after this dominant victory in Lisbon. Gabriel Martinelli scored their first Champions League goal away from the Emirates all season, following blanks at Italian sides Atalanta and Inter, within 10 minutes against Sporting CP after neat work down the threatening right side, and two more duly followed as Mikel Arteta’s side cruised to a 3-0 half-time lead. Advertisement Sporting, having lost manager Ruben Amorim to Manchester United , had looked bewildered but pulled one back early in the second half as the home crowd got behind their side, before Arsenal regained control through a penalty from Bukayo Saka just past the hour after Martin Odegaard had been brought down by Ousmane Diomande. The Sporting defender was already on a yellow card and was fortunate to avoid being sent off for the foul. Leandro Trossard completed the win late on, as Arsenal scored five away in the Champions League for the first time in 16 years. Amy Lawrence, Jordan Campbell and Mark Carey analyse the action. How important a statement was that first-half blitz? Believing they can be their best selves is a big deal for this Arsenal team in the Champions League. They arrived in Lisbon knowing they had been inhibited in their Champions League campaign so far, and started the game as if determined to make up for it in record time. The intensity of the press, with a front four on the front foot with fire in their boots, was a nightmare for Sporting. Odegaard bewitched behind the galloping runs of Saka, Martinelli and Kai Havertz . As a blueprint for how to make inroads away from home in Europe, Arsenal could not have been more dominant in that dazzling first half. Their control, focus and efficiency were cranked up. It had supporters racking their brains for the last time they had seen Arsenal so electric, and so mature, in the Champions League. Maybe the famous 5-1 win at Inter in 2003, or the legendary victory against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in 2006. More recently there was a fine 4-2 in Valencia’s Mestalla in 2019, but that was the Europa League . “You have to make it happen,” said manager Arteta in the build-up to the match. “Those steps are what we have to take next.” Advertisement Arsenal now know they can jump up those steps when their game is in tune. Amy Lawrence Is Odegaard already back to the top of his game? Arsenal fans hardly needed reminding of Odegaard’s quality, but the 25-year-old has wasted no time finding his rhythm since he returned from injury. It is not just the individual skill that Odegaard brings to Mikel Arteta’s side, it is also his ability to unlock Arsenal’s attacking potency on the right flank. Much was made of the attacking triangle of Odegaard, Saka and Ben White last season, but Jurrien Timber looks more than capable of joining the right-sided trio in the latter’s absence. The rotations of that triangle were key in Arsenal’s opener. Odegaard pulled wide and Saka drifted inside, leaving space for Timber to deliver a pinpoint cross for Martinelli to finish at the back post. In truth, Sporting’s five-man defence should not have been pulled apart so easily, given their numerical advantage across the back line, but Arsenal’s rotations forced the Portuguese champions into areas they didn’t want to go. Odegaard’s tendency to consistently pull midfielder Hidemasa Morita out of position allowed Arsenal to exploit gaps on the right side of the pitch — with a similar pattern occurring for their second goal. Morita’s preoccupancy with Odegaard gave Thomas Partey the time and space to lift a ball over Sporting’s back line to Saka, who rolled a simple pass for Kai Havertz to finish. If people thought that Arsenal’s engine had begun to sputter, Odegaard’s recent return from two months out with an ankle injury certainly looks to have clicked them back into gear. Mark Carey How did Saliba and Gabriel control Gyokeres? It was the Swedish striker’s celebration we have come so used to seeing. Sadly for Viktor Gyokeres, it was his direct opponent on the night, Gabriel , who performed it. After timing his run perfectly to meet Declan Rice ’s deep delivery, the Brazilian centre-back headed the ball home to make it 3-0, then clasped his hands over his face in front of the Sporting fans in the corner of the ground. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but the copying of Gyokeres’ goal celebration was likely seen as payback for Pedro Goncalves doing the same with Granit Xhaka ’s two seasons ago as Sporting knocked Arsenal out in the last 16 of the Europa League. Gabriel’s goal here capped off a dominant performance in which he shackled Gyokeres, who was the main focus in the lead-up to the game. With Arsenal failing to score in their previous four away games in the competition and the Sporting forward spearheading their 4-1 Champions League win here against Manchester City earlier this month, there has been discussion about whether he is the type of striker Arsenal could do with. Advertisement The only person who refused to talk about his impressive tally of 24 goals in 19 games this season during the build-up to the match was Arteta but he struggled against Gabriel and centre-back partner William Saliba , who was making his 100th Arsenal appearance. Gyokeres likes to drift to the left and cut in on his right foot but tonight he peeled onto Gabriel’s side of the pitch instead. He did not find much joy there, however, as Gabriel repeatedly manhandled him or stepped in front to cut out a pass to his feet. Sporting did find Gyokeres running into space several times but Gabriel managed those situations calmly and did not dive in. The Swede’s two clearest sight of goal came in the second half but he skied both shots well over the bar on a night when he did not produce his best. His best bit of play came late on, when he isolated Jakub Kiwior and got down the outside of the Polish defender but, while his left-footed shot beat David Raya , the ball smacked off the post. Jordan Campbell What are Arsenal’s prospects now for the top eight? Hopes of automatic qualification for the serious stuff, without the need for an extra knockout round, via a top-eight finish feel a lot healthier for Arsenal now. They moved into eighth place with this handsome win, although there may be some movement to the table with the Wednesday matches to come. Scoring five has done wonders for their goal difference, which might be important as the final table shapes up in the new year. Arsenal have three games remaining — Monaco of France’s Ligue 1 at home on December 11, and then in January they host Dinamo Zagreb of Croatia and visit Spain’s Girona, two teams who have not pulled up trees in the league phase so far with three combined wins from eight matches. Is it imperative to finish in the top cluster? No, but it is undeniably favourable. Advertisement Who knows, maybe Arteta will be able to squeeze in a few days for his players in the Dubai sunshine if they avoid that extra knockout round in February. Boosting their performance levels, on top of the standards they have set in the past few days, is a tantalising thought. Amy Lawrence What did Mikel Arteta say? Speaking after the match, Arteta said to TNT Sports: “It’s a big result against a big opponent. They haven’t lost a game here in 18 months and we wanted to make a statement. “I felt really good energy and belief before the match, but you have to put it into practice. I think the first half was exceptional, it gave us the platform to win the game. It was a really positive and important win for us. When asked about the space his side found in the first half, Arteta said: “You have to earn that space, they don’t usually give it. But I think we were really clever and really intelligent, really efficient in the way we attacked them.” On dealing with the goal Sporting pulled back just minutes into the second half, he added: “You could feel the atmosphere was changing, the last thing you want to do is concede in the first minute and give them any belief. But after that we showed after that we showed a lot of personality to bring the game down and to have the ball again and defend deeper. And we went on to score the fourth and I think that is when the game changed again.” What next for Arsenal?

U.S. Total Knee Replacement Market Set for Exceptional Growth in the Forecast 2024-2032

In the history of presidential pardons, the absolution granted to Hunter Biden by President Joe Biden stands alone. This clemency will register as one of the shameful culminating acts of a good man, and father, now inelegantly exiting the West Wing. The crimes committed by Hunter Biden, the youngest son of Joe Biden, are far from the most heinous ever to elicit the mercy of a U.S. president. Presidents have extended pardons to war criminals. And it’s not historically rare for a president to pardon someone who shares a direct family bloodline — though this is the first time a president has bestowed the extraordinary forgiveness to a direct progeny. What makes the president’s pardon historically consequential is that it’s a pardon Joe Biden said on several occasions he wouldn’t offer. He didn’t equivocate. So now we’re left to question whether Joe Biden simply changed his mind or deliberately misled the American public in the heat of an election campaign from which he had yet to withdraw. When President Biden told the American public he would accept the will of the jury, which convicted Hunter Biden on gun charges earlier this year, he was clear. He vowed to respect the rule of law as our best leaders do. “I’m extremely proud of my son Hunter,” Joe Biden said after the conviction. “He has overcome an addiction. He is one of the brightest, most decent men I know. I abide by the jury decision. I will do that, and I will not pardon him.” Jurors found Hunter Biden guilty in June of lying to a federally licensed gun dealer, making a false claim on the application by saying he was not a drug user and illegally possessing a gun for 11 days. At the time of this pardon, he had yet to be sentenced. Before the pardon, Hunter Biden was also scheduled to face a judge to be sentenced on a felony tax-evasion guilty plea. The false equivalencies have begun in earnest. Shortly after Joe Biden’s grant of clemency was announced Sunday, President-elect Donald Trump wrote the following post on the Truth Social platform: “Does the pardon given by Joe to Hunter include the J-6 (January 6th) hostages, who have now been imprisoned for years?” Trump wrote. “Such an abuse and miscarriage of justice!” A spokesperson for the Trump transition team offered additional perspective in defense of Trump, who was found guilty of 34 felony charges related to a hush-money payment to a porn actress in the 2016 campaign. The cases involving Trump and Hunter Biden bear no comparison, but that hasn’t prevented either side from arguing that they are victims of a politicized Department of Justice. “The failed witch hunts against President Trump have proved that the Democrat-controlled DOJ and other radical prosecutors are guilty of weaponizing the justice system,” Trump’s incoming White House Communications Director Steven Cheung said in a statement to Fox News. “That system of justice must be fixed, and due process must be restored for all Americans, which is exactly what President Trump will do as he returns to the White House with an overwhelming mandate from the American people,” Cheung said. It’s a false equivalency. Trump and a group of his supporters attempted to overturn a fair and free election. He branded the Jan. 6 protesters (and associated insurrectionists) as patriots and now may soon use his sweeping constitutional powers to grant them the same courtesy that Joe Biden granted his son. At least Trump has previously said he would consider pardons on a case-by-case basis. Even the sad spectacle of Trump potentially pardoning those who stormed the Capitol won’t completely eclipse one of the final acts of Joe Biden as U.S. president. He chose his son over country. He did so despite his stated intent that he wouldn’t. Morris is the opinion editor for the Minneapolis Star Tribune . Get local news delivered to your inbox!
