• Veterinarians and Help 

We've been in business for awhile.  We can generally help with many medical problems that come up, or can point you in the right direction.  Please don't hesitate to reach out if you are having problems.
Clinton Veterinary Service-  www.http://www.clintonvetsvc.com/
They have been our vet since 2005.  They are fantastic.  They offer drive in appointments so that if you are out of their area, you can still get care for your alpaca.
