Pigs

Camelids

Lander offers a wide range of general health care and surgical procedures for South American camelids (SACs) such as alpacas and llamas. Our specialists in veterinary medicine will consult on special problems which may require advanced diagnostic or therapeutic techniques.

A partial list of SAC services include castration, fighting teeth trimming, blood draws, treating dystocia, and the diagnosis of sick animals and their treatment. When detecting pregnancy in camelids, Lander vets may use the more accurate transabdominal ultrasound technology in place of blood progesterone testing. Certificates of Veterinary Inspections are provided for movement of camelids in transit.
