At Casselman Veterinary Services, we proudly offer comprehensive sheep and goat veterinary care in Grantsville, MD, with a focus on prevention, productivity, and practical on-farm solutions.
Full-Service Small Ruminant Care
Our team provides hands-on care for both individual animals and entire herds, with services designed to reduce disease risk, improve reproductive outcomes, and support animal comfort and performance.
Routine Wellness and Preventive Care
Wellness visits help us track your animals’ health, evaluate body condition, check hooves and teeth, and identify early signs of illness. Our aim is to assist you in staying ahead of health issues through regular checkups and smart planning.
Vaccination Programs
We build customized vaccination plans to protect your flock or herd from clostridial diseases (like CDT), respiratory infections, and region-specific risks. Vaccination schedules are tailored to your animals’ age, purpose, and farm exposure.
Reproductive and Obstetric Services
Our reproductive care includes pregnancy diagnosis via ultrasound, breeding soundness evaluations, and obstetrical assistance for complicated births, including C-sections. We support producers with reliable, on-farm services to maximize breeding efficiency and reduce losses during lambing and kidding.
Dehorning and Castration
We provide safe and humane dehorning and castration procedures for kids and lambs using proper restraint and pain control methods to minimize stress and complications.
Fecal Testing (McMaster's Method)
We use McMaster’s fecal flotation technique to manage internal parasites, which are a leading cause of poor condition in small ruminants. This diagnostic tool helps us make informed decisions about deworming, reducing resistance, and improving outcomes.
Health Certificates for Show and Sale
Planning to show or sell your animals? We offer health papers and testing required for transport and exhibition, ensuring your animals meet state and federal requirements for movement and sale.
Emergency Services
Emergencies can happen at any time. We provide 24-hour emergency veterinary care for our established clients with sheep and goats. From dystocia and down animals to bloating, severe lameness, or sudden illness, our team responds quickly and professionally.
Why Sheep and Goat Veterinary Care Matters
Small ruminants often mask symptoms of illness until conditions are advanced. That’s why preventive care and early detection are critical for flock and herd success. With timely veterinary intervention, you can:
- Reduce kid and lamb mortality
- Improve conception and birthing success rates
- Minimize parasite loads and resistance
- Protect herd immunity
- Avoid costly losses from preventable diseases
Investing in regular veterinary care improves animal welfare and supports long-term productivity and profitability for your farm or hobby operation.
