How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Countryside Large Animal Vet

Preventive care

Dr. Bott helped me out with a sick steer on a Sunday evening. I traveled a pretty good distance because there was no Vets available in my area. He helped the steer and he treated me very well. The fee was fair and well worth it for me. I wish he was in my area.

I’ve been using dr Hoffman here for a long time and up until yesterday I loved this clinic. Brought my lame horse in. He couldn’t walk at all. Dr Bott looked at him, I did mention his bum knee in the front that he struggles with because he is over the knee but the issue was the same side hind leg. He picked his leg up and my horse struggled so hard to balance and on top of that he was very scared and in pain. Instead of soothing him, the assistant kept yanking hard on the halter, and all three of them, horse, vet and assistant, kept bouncing around like crazy. Then this young guy comes out of the building and full force punches my horse in the nose to ‘settle him down’. And he laughed about it. My horse was completely thrown off and held still for a second. Then the whole bouncing around resumes until dr not decided to kick my horse on the underside of his belly as hard as he could. At this point my friend yelled at the vet so hard and said if he doesn’t stop it this instant, we will leave immediately. I’ve been so upset about everything that happened. You don’t beat on a scared and in pain horse. After the kick, my horse was shaking with fear. This is not ok and I’m really sad that I have to write this post because I used to love this vet clinic.

So thankful for the team at Countryside. They are efficient, friendly, and knowledgeable. Dr. Bott is a truly incredible human and a calming presence for those of us that hate seeing our animals in pain. Look no futher if you're searching for a large animal vet.

Dr. Zacharias and the staff at country side are amazing. They have taken such good care of my mare. I am very pleased I will take all my emergency horses to them from now on. I am from Riverton Wyoming

As a new client needing an emergency colic surgery on my good horse, Countryside took me in without hesitation. All of the doctors and Sara & Kimberly at the front desk have been so helpful. I appreciate them being straightforward. I think we all overlook other veterinary surgery options when we live so close to CSU, but Countryside is a significantly more budget/user friendly option. Thank you all for your devoted work!
