Bulls, heifers get vaccinated

Chelsea Peelen and DaMaris Menken voyaged 8 miles west to Dumont last Thursday in insulated coveralls, bibs and winter coats.

The North Central Veterinarian Clinic Doctor of Medicine and Medicine Assistant, Peelen and Menken, had to give 30 head of spring calves vaccinations, including castrating bulls and dehorning.

“We do it this time of year because it is prior to weaning,” Peelen said. “Usually getting them in the chute is the hardest part.”
