> So many new Vets only want to do small animal or can only afford to do small animal work
I think that's a real problem and it's only going to get worse over time. There's becoming a huge divide between livestock and pet medicine. Not the medicine part, but just how the service is structured. There's a LOT of money in treating cats and dogs and every young vet wants a piece of that action (why wouldn't they?!). If you can sweet talk a cat lady into spending $200 on a cat, why in the heck would you stand in the cold and get covered in manure for a couple bucks per calf. I worry that farm call prices are going to be drastically inflated soon as a result of pet medicine and the retirement of old-school vets.
Anyway, my local vet clinic has been outstanding. I work days during the week, so whenever I call them for an emergency it's usually after their business hours, but they're always there when I need them. Even as a very small operator, I can't think of any time I've ever written out a check to the vet and not considered it money saved, even when it was for a postmortem.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
