Burwash Equine Services

Cochrane, AB / TheNewswire / Burwash Equine Services recently moved into a brand new state-of-the-art building, and is excited to be celebrating their Grand Opening this weekend. All are invited to an Open House this Saturday, September 29, from 12-3pm. There will be a BBQ, tours of the new facility, prizes, games, and demos of some of the new surgical equipment. Guest can enjoy complimentary hot dogs, hamburgers, and drinks. Kids are welcome during the open house and can enjoy some games and face painting.

This new equine veterinary hospital was designed to push industry standards for horse health care to new levels.  It features a unique curved monorail hoist system that allows for a smooth ride for the horse from induction through surgery and on to recovery, an assisted recovery room to optimize patient recovery after surgery, and a client surgery viewing area that are the first of their kind in Alberta.

Burwash Equine Services has been part of the fabric of the horse industry in Alberta since 1977.  Dr. Wayne Burwash started the practice in 1977 and became known for the compassionate care he provided to his patients and the trustworthy relationships he built with his clients.  The current owners, Dr. Kirby Penttila and Dr. Crystal Lee, made a commitment to uphold these traditions as they made plans to move to the new clinic and expand the services that they are able to offer to horse owners in Alberta.
