Herd Health:                                                                                                               

Regularly scheduled Herd Health visits are tailored to the management of each dairy.  Some of the tools we have to offer include:
  • Ultrasound, including twin detection and fetal sexing
  • Synchronized breeding protocols and evaluation
  • Dairy Comp 305, PCDart
  • Vaccine protocols
  • Treatment protocols
  • Calf health programs


In-House Laboratory:                                                                                               

We have the ability to run a number of diagnostic tests in-house, such as blood calcium and phosphorus levels, total protein, BVD, and many more.

Milk Quality:                                                                                                               

Our clinic laboratory has the capacity to perform bacterial and mycoplasma cultures.  Dr. Hruby also specializes in troubleshooting herd-based mastitis and milk quality issues on herds of all sizes. 

We also offer Parlor Procedure Evaluations.  During these evaluations, one of our veterinarians will be present during milking(s), and assess the following:
  • Milking Procedure
  • Worker Compliance
  • Udder Hygiene
  • Teat End Condition

Dairy Consultation:                                                                                                  

Let us help you maximize the profitability of your farm.  In addition to a regularly scheduled Herd Health visit, some of the ways we can do this include:
  •    Team Meetings (usually including nutritionists, and other professionals servicing the farm)
  •    Dairy expansion plans
  •    In-depth investigations/second opinions on problems such as calf health, milk quality, transition cow        managment, and other issues

Embryo Transfer:                                                                                                      

Drs. Lyle and Ogden Holshbach and Dr. Josh Kluenker are well prepared to handle any embryo transfer needs you have.  We offer AETA certification, and services in superovulation, flushing, embryo grading, freezing, and implantation.  We also can arrange in-vitro fertilization if desired. 

Breeding Soundness Exams:                                                                                  

Maximize your bull breeding program by having your bulls tested for breeding soundness before turning them in with the cows.

Our haul-in facility is equipped to safely and efficiently perform breeding soundness exams on beef and dairy bulls.  These exams can also be done on-farm if there is proper restraint (i.e. a chute) available.  Bulls are evaluated using standards established by the American Society for Theriogenology.
