Large Animal Medicine in Denton, TX

As a large animal owner, you are already aware of the tremendous responsibility it takes to care for a large animal! Animals such as horses, cows, sheep, goats, and pigs require specialized treatment and care that is drastically different than the care required for more common companion animals. 

Unlike companion animals, farm animals spend a majority of their time in the fields or in barns and are exposed to different types of spores from the grass, soil, plants, and water. When farm animals get sick, they don’t always show it. Sometimes the illness will suddenly take over and lead to a fatal event. Typical signs of sickness in large farm animals include: 

• Fever
• Staggering or inability to stand up
• Fatigue
• Depression
• Difficulty breathing
• Reluctance to eat meals or drink water
• Difficulty breathing
• Seizure

It’s important to have a plan in place ahead of time if your large animals start showing any of these signs of illness.
