Lameness Diagnostic Services
Poor feet health affects animal production output. It’s a fact.
At Oakey Veterinary Hospital we realise the importance of keeping your Bovine’s feet in A1 condition.
Lameness is the third economically important disease affecting cattle. The responsibility for dealing with it can fall on everyone involved in the industry, from the stock person right through to the veterinary surgeon.
Bovine lameness can significantly reduce productivity and it can disrupt reproductive performance.
Examination of bovine lameness is important as treatment will vary according to cause. Medical or surgical treatment of the lame cow is almost always necessary.
Our farm animal veterinarian can assess your herd and can provide corrective treatment where required.
