>Dear Vice Governor Pinol, I would like to once again thank you for inviting me to the conference in Davao City. As I said before this was one of the best run conferences I have been to, not only from the speakers point of view, but also from the delegates I spoke to both at the conference and while travelling back to Manila. They had learnt a lot and were enthusiastic to develop their goat operations. Please pass on my congratulations to all those involved in making the conference such a success.

MEDICAL TIPS FOR GOAT RAISERS |
|
Written by Dr. Fred C. Homeyer
|
|
Anyone who has raised goats for any length of time has had a sick goat. When we have a sick goat our primary concern is doing whatever is necessary to get the goat well as soon as possible. Most of us can't take our animals to the vet every time they get a runny nose, therefore, unless we happen to be extremely wealthy, we must learn to doctor our sick animals when they come down with minor health problems. The following goat medicine tips were developed from positive experiences with my goats during the past three years. If you have some effective procedures that you would like to share and add to this list, please let me know. You should also be aware that I am not a vet and that I am not advocating that you use any of the techniques that I am going to describe below. This article is simply the documentation of my experiences with my goats. Some of these things may not work with your animals. The last thing tht I would recommend before relating my experience is that you should always consult your vet.
