Marchadors
by Laura Hinson
When people first see Netuno, they give him a second look, then ask what breed he is. I know exactly how this is
going to go. I routinely say, “he is a Mangalarga Marchador.” And routinely they say, “A what?” I then proceed to
tell them what I am about to tell you here. Netuno is one of a few hundred Mangalarga Marchadors, the National
horse of Brazil, who reside in the United States. How cool is it that a country has a national horse? He has his own
Facebook page too. (Netuno Lapidade, a Mangalarga Marchador) And he was imported from Brazil by 4 Seasons
Marchadores in Montana. (www.4seasonsmarchadores.com)
I had been looking for another gaited horse for a long time.
When I discovered this breed, I was completely enamored by
them. The Marchador is very versatile. As with many Spanish
breeds they are good cattle horses. They are known for setting
the Guinness Book of World Records endurance ride of 8,694
miles in 1994. A perfect trail horse, they could also excel in
other disciplines that require agility, stamina, speed and a sound
mind.Training of this breed is facilitated by its intelligence,
and uses for the breed are unlimited. This breed is extremely
docile and is commonly ridden by children. I bought Netuno to
compete in Trail Trials.
The Marchadores possess their own smooth, distinct gaits which include the “picada” with the feet moving laterally
and separately and has moments of triple support. The “batida” is characterized when the horse places the feet
diagonally and with moments of triple support. These movements are unlike other gaited breeds including Missouri
Foxtrotters and Paso Finos. The footfall pattern for the batida is 4:3:2:3:4:3:2:3. Marchadores can also possess three
clear gaits including normal walk, trot, smooth rocking horse lope and fast, open gallop.
Netuno has been exactly what is described in all the books about the breed. No kidding. Quiet, easy, friendly,
spirited, trainable, brave, willing, smart, not spooky, a lovely gait, and I could just go on and on. While they are still
rare here, the word is getting out. The association can be found at http://www.namarchador.org. All the US breeders
and importers can be found there. Enjoy discovering a breed you most likely did not know about. And know that
one of them lives here... in Carmel Valley.

SCEC to Open Saturdays!
Steinbeck is excited to offer Saturday appointments starting in November! While SCEC has always been open
for emergencies on weekends, as of November 10th, 2012, we will also be opening on Saturdays 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.
Both ambulatory and hospital services will be available. We hope that by offering additional time on Saturdays for
appointments we can better meet the needs of your busy schedule. We also now have an emergency doctor available
Monday - Friday from 8:00 a.m - 5:30 p.m. To make it even better, we will not be charging an emergency fee during
normal daytime business hours.
Nick and Laramie Return to SCEC!!!
Steinbeck is thrilled to welcome back two very talented veterinarians, Dr Nick
Carlson and Dr Laramie Winfield. Dr Carlson completed a one year internship
at Steinbeck (and was asked to stay for an additional year) and has spent the last
three years working as an ambulatory practitioner at Loomis Basin Equine Medical
Center. Dr Carlson’s interests include advanced equine dentistry and surgery. He
will be completing a three year surgery residency at Steinbeck and is very excited to
be back in the Monterey Peninsula. Dr Laramie Winfield also completed a one year
internship at Steinbeck and has been at UC Davis for the last three years completing a
large animal internal medicine residency. Her interests include equine neurology and
neonatal care. Dr Winfield will be working as an associate at Steinbeck focusing on
internal medicine. As some of you may remember, the couple was married locally in
2009. *See our Fall 2009 Newsletter for wedding photos.
We are delighted to have them back on our team. They are always willing to jump in and help, or rush out on
emergencies, consistently demonstrating their deep care for the well-being of their patients.
Authorized Emergency Agent/Contact
Many of us wouldn’t leave town without leaving a signed medical release for our children. In case of emergency,
we diligently appoint an individual to make emergency medical decisions. When horses are left with caretakers,
their feeding regimes, supplement administration, turnout protocols, blanketing protocols and grooming regimes
are covered. However, it is commonplace to leave town without designating someone to make emergency medical
decisions for our horses. However, things don’t always go as planned. When a horse gets a serious injury or suffers
from a significant colic, it is frequently a struggle for horse owners to decide which course of action to follow. Imagine
the difficulty of having to make that decision for someone else’s animal!
When you leave town give your caretaker some guidelines on what extent you would be willing to go to for each of
your horses. Alternatively, you can call the clinic and have the office put a note in your horse’s record regarding the
financial limit or degree of heroics you would like us to adhere to in your absence. Thanks and have a safe trip!

Monterey Horse Park Kicks Up Some Dust
by Connie Quinlan
The trail to the Monterey Horse Park has been long and dry, now progressive activity is making dust clouds! With the
expert help of Monterey Downs, the Environmental Impact Report is in the works. This involved and expensive report
incorporates three projects: Monterey Downs, Monterey Horse Park and the Veterans Cemetery. The EIR is due to the
City of Seaside this December, a public comment period will follow the submission of the EIR, and then the Seaside
City Council will vote on the report. The EIR is a major step in the approval process.
During the public comment period, and the subsequent Council vote, it is vital to
have a strong show of support from our local equestrian community. The presence of
pro-Horse Park supporters during the public comment period will go a long way in
convincing council members that these are worthwhile projects.
Additionally, Monterey Horse Park is actively collecting names of project supporters,
which will be used to verify community support. This survey asks three separate
questions: 1. Do you support Monterey Horse Park?; 2. Do you support Monterey
Downs?; 3. Do you support the Veterans Cemetery? Please take a few moments to
answer to 3 questions and email your response to mailto:cquinlan@montereyhorse
park.org By responding to this survey, you will not be added to any mailing list. If
you would like to be notified, via email, of community meetings or of the progress of

Joint Injection Reminders
by Dr. Tim Eastman
For years we have sent reminder cards about your horses routine health care, vaccinations etc. Suzanne Thomas, a
client in Carmel Valley, had what I thought was a great idea. Her horses receive soundness examinations and joint
injections at fairly regular intervals. She called and asked if she could have the times for her horses joint injections sent
out as reminder cards. This proved to be easy and could be applicable to other areas, ie regular bloodwork, soundness
checks, etc. So, if your horse has something done on a regular basis you would like a reminder of, just call the office
and you will receive a card in the mail prior to when the work needs to be done.
West Nile Virus Update
by Dr. Laramie Winfield
West Nile Virus is a mosquito transmitted disease that first came to the United States in
1999. West Nile Virus is on the rise with 92 human cases, and 20 horses infected in the
state of California already this year. You can protect your horse from West Nile infection with
a vaccination, which we recommend on an annual basis. Horses that are not vaccinated or
incompletely vaccinated (horses that have not received a yearly booster or adequate primary
series) are at a much higher risk for contracting infection. Additional precautions that will help
prevent West Nile Disease include mosquito control measures such as management of standing
water.
Rabies, a viral disease transmitted via the saliva of infected animals and is easily preventable with adequate vaccination.
Rabies is fatal in animals and can be spread from animals to humans, creating public health concerns. Rabies vaccines
are protective as long as they are kept current and given properly.
Vaccination against Rabies and West Nile Virus are both part of the list of core vaccines recommended by the American
Association of Equine Practitioners. If your horse has not been vaccinated for West Nile or Rabies or is not current on
their vaccines please make an appointment today.
Twenty Confirmed Equine WNV Cases in California
2012 Equine West Nile Virus (WNV) Update: Twenty Confirmed Equine WNV Cases
On September 25, 2012 the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) Animal Health Branch confirmed
two additional cases of West Nile Virus (WNV); a 16 year old unvaccinated horse from Yuba county and a two year old
unvaccinated horse in Shasta county. Both horses were euthanized.
For 2012, a total of twenty horses have been confirmed positive for WNV. The positive horses are located in the
following twelve counties Butte, Calaveras, Fresno (3), Glenn, Kern(2), Merced, Sacramento(2), San Joaquin (2), Shasta
(4), Stanislaus, Yolo and Yuba counties. Seven of the positive horses have been euthanized.
CDFA continually monitors and investigates equine neurologic cases for the presence of WNV in California. CDFA
urges horse owners to consult their veterinarian concerning a WNV vaccination program to ensure maximum
protection of their horses.

Pergolide/Prascend by Chris Ryan,DVM
Equine Cushing’s disease, or Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction (PPID), is a
common disease in older horses. The symptoms of this condition can include
a shaggy hair coat, lethargy, pot-bellied appearance, decreased immune
function, and increased risk of laminitis. The best treatment available for these
horses is careful management and a daily dose of an oral medicine called
Pergolide mesylate. When Pergolide mesylate was withdrawn from the human
market in 2007, it left veterinarians and owners reaching for compounded
Pergolide made at local pharmacies to fill the void. Unfortunately, studies
have shown that this compounded Pergolide does not meet Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines for stability and potency over time.
Dr. Chris Ryan at Farm Day
However, late last year the FDA approved “Prascend”, a new formulation of
Pergolide mesylate specifically for the treatment of PPID. It comes in a tablet containing 1 milligram of Pergolide and
can easily be broken in half if necessary for each patient’s dosing regimen. Steinbeck Country Equine Clinic will be
carrying and prescribing Prascend for the treatment of our Cushing’s patients and we hope that the improved stability
and consistency of this new product will enable some horses to be managed with a smaller dose than previously
possible.
Talented Daughter
Charlie Tobias DVM and his wife Lisa have even more reason to be proud of their
daughter Grace. This year she was not only Miss San Benito Rodeo, but was the
first runner up for Miss California Rodeo. The largest category of criteria (40%)
in the competition is horsemanship which includes equitation, dismount, remount, reining pattern and queen’s run. Grace participated in the Salinas Grand
Entry and did her fly-bys (Queen’s Run) on her mare Mocha.
Recommend a Horse Book
SCEC recommends “True Unity: Willing Communication Between Horse and Human”
by Tom Dorrance and “Tom Dorrance: More Than a Horseman” by Margaret Dorrance
and John Saint Ryan. Other favorites are “The Life and Times of a Western Artist” by
J.N. Swanson and “Horse Heaven” by client Jane Smiley.

New Client Waiting Room & Andrea Johnson’s Art
For a long time Drs. Tim and Alex Eastman wanted to remodel the
SCEC waiting room to make it more comfortable for our clients. This
spring Dr. Alex tackled the project with the help of her brother-inlaw, Brian Riddell of Riddell Construction. With faith in her vision
(which included tearing out a support wall) Alex quelled the worries of
unsettled office staff and helped with every step, for example, packing
and unpacking the office to make it easier for her employees. The result
has been an uplifting opening of space in the waiting room, better flow,
more light, comfort, and the added warmth of a cozy fireplace. Snacks
and bottled waters are also provided. (The whole clinic was also freshly
repainted.)
We have some lovely art hanging in the
new waiting room. Andrea Johnson’s
relationship with Corral De Tierra,
Steinbeck’s “Pastures of Heaven” has been
the focus of her paintings for the past ten
years. Although she moved to the Monterey
Peninsula 22 years ago, it took a while for
the hills with the bulls and cows that roam
them to become her focus.
The morning or early evening light as
it touches the hills and crosses over the
monumental forms of the bulls that wander by her studio have been a constant
source of inspiration. She carries her camera with her everywhere and has a huge
inventory of landscape and animal photographs from which she then forms her
compositions. Andrea’s paintings are hanging in the newly remodeled entry of
Steinbeck Equine clinic where her son-in-law, Dr. Nick Carlson, and daughter, Dr.
Laramie Winfield, are both employed.
One of Andrea’s paintings depicts a calf owned by Sabrina and Arthur Miller which was delivered via C-Section by Dr.
Chris Ryan. Sabrina reports that Ben is doing well. He loves to jump the cross-country course and seems to think he is
a dog.

Meet the New Interns
Melodee Ingram was born and raised in Cardiff-by-the-sea CA, where she grew up
training and competing in equestrian show jumpers, progressing from children’s jumpers
to the open amateur jumpers. Melodee completed her undergraduate education at
Washington State University in Animal Science and this is where she developed interest in
equine reproduction. She went forth and completed a Master’s Degree in Animal Science
with a specialization in Equine Reproduction from California Polytechnic State University,
San Luis Obispo. During her Master’s Degree, she studied the effects of the sperm surface
protein HSP-7 on equine fertilization. Melodee was then admitted to Western University
of Health Sciences where she completed her veterinary degree and graduated in 2012.
During veterinary school, Melodee was the president of the Student Chapter of American
Association of Equine Practitioners, was awarded multiple equestrian related scholarships
and had the opportunity to gain clinical experience from many international veterinarians and participate in the age
old traditions of the Palio horse race (Siena, Italy) in 2010. Melodee joined Steinbeck Country Equine Clinic (SCEC)
in 2012 and is eager to grow as a veterinary professional with her SCEC colleagues. Melodee’s professional interests
include: equine sports medicine, advanced therapeutics, diagnostic imaging, lameness and orthopedics. Away from the
clinic, you can find Melodee enjoying the Monterey Peninsula with her husband, Jon and her 10 year old Boxer, Titus.
Weston Warnock was raised in Bastrop, Texas, on a family-owned, and operated, feedyard and
commercial cattle ranch. Growing up, he was actively involved in the show cattle industry
and rodeo. Weston pursued undergraduate studies at Texas A&M University in Animal
Science, before proceeding on to veterinary school at Texas A&M as well. Throughout
veterinary school, he was involved with the Student Chapters of the American Association
of Equine Practitioners, the American Veterinary Medical Association, and the American
Association of Bovine Practitioners, serving as the president of the latter in 2010-2011.
He was also admitted to Phi Zeta, a veterinary honors society, and awarded the Cardwell
Scholarship for Excellence in Bovine Medicine. Weston received his Doctor of Veterinary
Medicine from Texas A&M in 2012, graduating Summa Cum Laude, and was excited to join
SCEC in 2012. His professional interests include soft tissue and orthopedic surgery, gastrointestinal disease, lameness,
and ophthalmology. Outside of the clinic, he enjoys hunting, fishing, ranching, and team roping.
SCEC Externship & Internship Programs
We’ve had roughly 280 veterinary students come to visit from ~ 39 schools, from across the
states and thirteen other countries. Veterinarians have also come to visit, like our dear Dr.
Terry Boretti, originally from Brazil. We have also helped veterinarians, like Dr. Raj Kang,
who obtained his veterinary degree in another country and needed to pass the large animal
portion of the testing in the U.S. We’ve seen young volunteers and shadows come back
again as technicians, externs, and interns.
Intern Photo Wall
Over the years, we’ve had the chance to meet many bright and enthusiastic students. They
in
the
Conference Room
ride along in the trucks, assist with treatments, and are asked to give a presentation during
the doctor rounds. The intern selection time is always bittersweet because we can’t accept all
the gifted students we would like, but we enjoy hearing their familiar names come up when they send us referrals or
are listed at special veterinary events. We know they are out there doing well in their careers.
We’ve had 18 veterinary interns now, from 7 different schools. Some of our interns chose to return to their home states
immediately after their year was over, or to accept a residency elsewhere, or to open their own practices. Others have
stayed for residencies at SCEC. Dr. Nora Grenager completed her 3 year board certification in internal medicine and
then joined the practice temporarily as an associate. Dr. Sarah James is currently completing her ABVP residency with
us, and Dr. Nick Carlson has started his surgery residency. It is always fun to hear from our former externs
and interns, receive baby photos and news updates, such as the fascinating ones from Dr. Grenager about her

Waggs N’ Naggs was established in 2000 to provide a clean, safe, loving, fun environment for
your pets in a spacious country retreat. We have been highly recommended by many local
veterinarians. All runs are indoor/outdoor allowing your dog the freedom he/she needs to feel
comfortable.
