Herd health is an important element of being responsible for a lot of animals. Routine veterinary checks should be a top priority to find any potential health issues early. Because of the importance and benefits of proactive herd management, we provide this service to local livestock owners. 

Pet wellness is essential for all animals, not just cats and dogs. Farm animals should be examined by a veterinarian at least once a year, even if the animals seem perfectly healthy. 

At Switzer Veterinary Clinic, our mobile unit contains the equipment and supplies needed to provide farm animals with general wellness exams, herd health visits, diagnostic tests, and some surgeries. We also treat chickens and small goats at our clinic in Alpena. 

In this blog, our team explains why pet wellness is essential for farm animals and the things you can do between visits to keep your farm animals healthy.
