Care Credit has helped us help our dog not once but twice.

If you have livestock you will need a vet at some point. No matter how well you take care of the animals there will come a time when you have to call in a professional. Especially now that some things can no longer be obtained without a prescription. It is wise to put away some cash in a...

Start by getting her temp. Use any thermometer. Check her hydration level. Pull a piece of skin away and let go. If it snaps right back she is okay. If it does not she is dehydrated and needs fluids. Check the inside of her lower eyelid. This should be a nice red pink. If it is pale this...

From what you are stating it sounds like she may be having a neurological problem. What is causing that can be hard to figure out. I'm thinking a vet checkup and a fecal for starters. Blood workup as well. Goats in the same herd can indeed have different parasite load levels. Any thermometer...

Thank you for your responses. She appears to be able to eat her hay and grain well enough. I have her on a goat loose mineral made up for our area by our vet. I have started taking each doe and feeding desperately so as to make sure that all are getting what I think they are. The vet suggested...

Over the winter we have noticed that this doe's lower front teeth have grown long and now quite loose. None of the other goats seem to have any dental issues. This girl seems to be in good shape otherwise. Have any of you had a goat with this issue? I really like this goat and don't want to cull...

We use our kitchen aid. It has lasted us over twenty years and still going strong

The founder issue is going to be lifelong thing. It can be managed though. Have you looked into the Clinton Anderson methods of training. Look for Clinton Anderson on you tube. The basic fundamentals will help immensely. He did a tv series where he worked with a rescue mare that had been let...

Was there a skin problem before the pour on wormer was used? I would fit her up with a good coat for now so she can keep warm. Look into feeding her foods that help naturally with immune system. Make sure you have a vet that is up on goats. Not all vets are good with goats and sheep.

It may serve to learn as much as possible about herbal healing. I don't really think this law will have the desired effect as the large corp. outfits will have vets sign off on whatever they do now anyway. It may well hurt the small time people that have a few head. When I first heard about...

They are very cute. Babies are always so fun.

So far so good. He is a very in your pocket friendly horse.

Bummer. sometimes no matter what you do they just can't seem to make it. I am glad you decided to end her suffering. Its always a good thing to know when its time

I have used Sulmet for cocci. I get it at local del's tractor supply. Reasonable price.

If it were me I would submit a fecal sample to a vet. In the meantime as stated above red cell. If you have it available try to entice him to eat some blackberry leaves. The worms and pen. could very well have caused his little rumen to loose the good bacteria so that his ability to digest has...

They are the tom cat brand. I quit using the decon pellets. Got tired of the varmints packing them around. LOL Found em in outdoor boots.

Rabbits digestive systems can bo so touchy I would not want to risk it. I stick with pellets and hay and maybe a tiny bit of apple for the adults.

When I start seeing sign of rats I put out those green bait blocks. I place them where the cat and dog and stock are not able to get at them. At first I was afraid I would end up poisoning our dog or cat. I have been using them now for ten years off and on. No trouble with the pets yet. They...

I am very interested. What type of blood work should I ask my vet to do in order to find out what is what before I start mixing and matching minerals and what not. Water soluable stuff does not worry me but I am fearful of overdoing the others. I am thinking some testing may save a lot of money...

Hey there. Good to see another Oregon member. As the title suggests I am in Alsea Oregon. I def. agree about using hot wire. If you don't, your fence will get hammered. As for the LGD I would def. get one, but a person needs to put solid training into them or there will likely be serious...
