Farm Calls / Equine Care

We are proud to offer Farm Call Services. We will come out to your farm to work your livestock/large animals!

We offer a variety of services to our large animal clients and producers including, but not limited to, the following:

Routine herd health examination

Health certificates for sale/travel

We perform blood draws and examinations for participation in the USDA Certified-free herds program for Brucellosis and Tuberculosis in cattle. We are also certified to help you meet the requirements of the Missouri Stocker Feeder Quality Assurance Program

Wellness examinations for sick or injured livestock:

Basic physical examinations include evaluation of heart and lungs, temperature as needed, evaluation of the rumen/abdomen, and additional procedures at your veterinarian's discretion.

Vaccinations:

At Heartland Animal Hospital, we believe it is imperative to vaccinate your herd of animals, no matter the species to maximize growth and production potential. We are capable and experienced in recommending the right vaccine for your situation.

We offer multiple options for improving the health of your breeding herd, as well as calf-hood vaccine protocols. We carry both modified live and killed vaccines and can administer based on your personal preference and our recommendations.

Important pathogens to vaccinate against include the following:

Bovine respiratory disease complex - IBR, PI3, Pasteurella, Mannheimia, Mycoplasma
Clostridial disease - Blackleg and tetanus
Pinkeye - Moraxella bovis and Moraxella bovoculi; we do offer autogenous vaccines for your herd
Abortion pathogens - Vibrio, Leptospirosis, IBR, PI3
Calf diarrhea - E. coli

Dr. Patti Cuddihee and her staff are great and caring people. They care for animals like they were their own. She takes the time to explain everything to you so you can understand it better, too. She is always there if you have an emergency, day or night, and will call you back.

Thank you all for taking great care of my babies!
