Farm Animals

Have you ever dreamed of one day owning a farm? Well, owning some livestock can give you the same rewarding feeling. Livestock consists of animals such as cows, pigs, sheep, goats, donkeys, horses, and mules. Whether you want an animal to provide you with fresh eggs in the morning or one to ride through your pasture, livestock animals are your best bet to give you what you are looking for. 

Choosing what livestock to raise relies heavily on how much space you have, if they need fencing, how much they eat, state and local property laws, and more. You should also consider what type of veterinary care your livestock will require to avoid the spread of diseases and external parasites. Your veterinarian can recommend the best vaccinations for your livestock so they stay as healthy as possible. Continue to the articles below to learn how you should care for each livestock animal.

  • ""We found our new fav. Vet!! The first time I met Dr. Stiles I right away had a good feeling she gave my father and I a warm welcome and introduced herself. She took a look at our pregnant female and after examining her she told us the problem and was 100 percent correct. She could have taken advantage of us and gave us the run around but she didn't. She is honest and trustworthy. We had another concern with a puppy and again very honest with her answers and did not try and rip us off or stress out the puppy in any way. I will be telling everyone about Dr. Stiles at rancho vet!!! Thank you for everything you do.""
