Posting for a client!
This pup was dumped and is needing to find a new home, she has some wounds on her back/side that are healing and being treated, but otherwise healthy.

6-8 months old, female 37 pounds (I don’t think she’ll get much bigger). A little timid but enjoyed being loved on, and I think would make a great pet.

Please message to let us know if interested, we are willing to spay and do vaccines/heartworm testing at a 15% discount to anyone that takes her home from this post!

She is currently safe and being cared for by the people that found her, they just can’t keep her longterm.

“Papillomas” or Cattle Warts (Vaccine Available)

-What is it?

Small firm nodules or large cauliflower-like growths that are grayish to black in color and rough and spiny to the touch. They can appear on the neck, face, back, and legs of cattle. Warts ordinarily cause little harm and usually disappear spontaneously in 6 to 18 months

-How is it spread?

Direct contact with infected animals, infection gaining entry through skin abrasions. It is a disease mostly of young animals.

-How to treat it?

They can be surgically removed, however, treatment is usually not required because most warts will eventually shrink and fall off on their own after a few months.

-Why Vaccinate?

In purebred cattle, warts may interfere with sales because of their unsightly appearance. In extreme cases cattle with extensive cutaneous wart lesions may lose condition and develop secondary bacterial infections. Warts on teats of dairy cows often cause interference with milking. Warts on the teats do show an increasing frequency with age.

-How to PREVENT warts? (That is the real question!)

The Wart Vaccine. That’s it. We have it. Each is a killed virus vaccine designed for use in healthy cattle to aid in the prevention of viral warts (papillomas). This vaccine can be administered to cattle as early as 4 to 6 weeks of age.. A vaccine that after given initially, needs administered again in 3-5 weeks for both adult cattle and calves.

Reach out and we can send over prices and answer any questions!

Dairy Cattle : Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza

There are requirements being enforced that lactating dairy cattle going to exhibitions including, but not limited to, County and State Fairs must have a negative milk test for HPAI.

The milk samples must be taken by an accredited veterinarian and submitted to OADDL within seven (7) days of the cow moving to the exhibition.

A Certificate of Veterinary Inspection with the official ID of the cow and the negative HPAI test information must be completed within seven (7) days of the exhibition.


It’s very important to practice biosecurity at all times, but especially in times like this when we know the potential for exposure to a harmful microorganism is high.

Read below to get more informed on prevention!

Edit: owner has been found! Thanks everyone!

I know someone needs this little pup!

A client contacted me about this 4-6 month old male intact puppy, was found roaming the countryside this week. No one has claimed, him despite being posted on facebook and local shelter.

Does well in crate, walks okay on a leash, very sweet with people. Gets along well with other dogs.

Send us a message, as facebook is not letting me tag them, and we’ll get you in contact!

Early intervention is key!

This counts for all species not just cattle.

We really appreciate if you have animals that you know their exact due dates specifically pigs, show heifers that are higher risk for problems giving birth just let us know, that way we can have you on our radar and get to help you as soon as possible.

Guys, it’s cold! This season means lots of emergencies.

We appreciate everyone’s patience with us this past couple weeks, we have had lots of major emergencies that we have had to reschedule regular appointments for - trust me, we HATE that but it’s just part of it.

If you have a life/death emergency we will do our best to get there ASAP IF we can reschedule our day, meaning there are some days we cannot reschedule (maybe that’s surgeries, a day of BSE’s, preg checking, animals have been trailered in and help hired for that day, etc).

That means the best we can do is be there when we finish what we have already scheduled, which we know is not always ideal but unfortunately Dr Hinkle can’t be in two places at once (and usually that means hours of driving to get to everyone in between).

We respond to emergencies in the order they come in, so if we already have had multiple calls in the day, we aren’t putting you off, just remember there are other clients with emergencies too.

As always thank you for your business, and be safe and warm in the coming weeks.

Taking a client poll!

So many of you need appointments after 4pm, in order to try to get everyone in, if we stayed open until 7pm one day *for haul-in appointments only* would that help or would you be interested?

If so, let us know if there is a day of the week that would be best.

Happy New Year from Rafter H Vet!

We have officially moved into our clinic building, Brooke Thompson (who most of you have met this past year when she has been with me on appointments), will be in the clinic 4 days a week answering phone calls, and keeping up with the behind the scenes work (there is a lot!)

I promise this is a good thing - this means you will get faster and more thorough service although it will not always be me you are talking to. If you do need to talk to me, Brooke will pass on the info and I’ll get back to you between appointments. This really streamlines my ability to get to emergencies, or call backs that are urgent and Brooke can deal with the rest. My phone still rings every time a call comes in, and every time a text comes through so I will be responding as needed.

We are doing haul-in appointments at the clinic (both small and large animals) on Mondays so that I can fit everyone in, so those of you that don’t want to pay the call fee, this is for you! The rest of the week we will be on the road.

You will also be able to come by and pick up medicine or prescriptions during the day and not wait for me to get back at the end of my day to leave things out. You will need to text or call before dropping by as Brooke will be running errands/lunch, etc and occasionally be out of the office.

Thank you all for your business in 2023, here’s to a wonderful 2024, full of routine appointments, and healthy animals!
