Wellness

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. That's why at Big Country Vet we offer things like our Herd Health Program and our Regular De-Worming Program for sheep, goats and llamas.

There is nothing better that you can do for your pets and your livestock than invest in regular care.

For small animals younger than six years old, we suggest an exam annually. These exams include a physical exam, fecal analysis and vaccines appropriate to your pet's lifestyle and environment. We will address issues such as the need for flea and tick preventative or heartworm medications.

When small animals are older than six years, we suggest having blood work done annually to look for things like kidney problems. Common old age problems such as these, if caught early, can be remedied or helped in some way.

For large animals we recommend that you work with us to set up a specific and customized care program. You know the investment you have in the cost of your herd; we can suggest an affordable customized plan to ensure their health and vitality.
