Abbott "Pete" Smith D.V.M.
June 16, 1938 - February 22, 2010
Welcome to Milliron Monday where every Monday we celebrate the legacy of Pete Smith, D.V.M., and Milliron: Abbott “Pete” Smith, D.V.M. The Biography, including his wife Jody (1938-2021).
“I have skimmed over a very large area in
a short time and hope I have touched on
some points which you may find useful.”
– Dr. Pete Smith
It was often that Pete was called to present at OVMA and AVMA conventions. This particular speaking engagement was to present insights about equine nutrition. Although there is no date on the yellowed typing paper, Dr. Smith created speaking notes that are still relevant today.
From the Smith family archives, here are Dr. Smith's notes on equine nutrition:

If you are experiencing a specific problem with your equine, consult your local veterinarian. Don't wait until the problem gets out of control. Call your veterinarian early on to prevent serious health issues. I've heard Jody say many times that nothing frustrated Pete more than people who waited too late to take their pet, horse, etc., for medical treatment.
