We load our low Igg alpaca cria Mr Tambourine Man and his dam Navidad into the trailer and head off to Crater Animal Clinic. This is a great facility just outside Medford in Central Point.
After we arrive it takes a while to get a line into the little cria but eventually we get a good line and transfuse the plasma. After the transfusion Dr Tara Timpson gives a shot of BOSE and another of vitamins A and D.
Its a short story but it took the thick end of three hours. The staff at the this place are amazing and I can't speak highly enough of their great attitude and professionalism together with their commitment and enthusiasm about camelids and alpacas in particular.
Our deepest thanks to Dr Tara Timpson DVM and all the staff at Crater Animal Clinic.
What an amazing resource only 30 minutes from our farm.
Mom and cria are glad to be home and back in the herd, so are we.
