Equine

We also provide services for your equine

From small native ponies to working hunters, Argyll is host to a small but enthusiastic population of equine enthusiasts.
Oban Vets is pleased to support them in their pursuits and offers the following services:

  • Riding establishment inspections for council licensing

  • In house worm (and fluke) egg counts to enable strategic parasite control

  • The practice works closely with the Weipers centre at Glasgow University to deal with more demanding cases.

  • Routine vaccinations, health checks and lameness examination

  • Dentistry; Alasdair has a keen interest in the dental care of horses and recently acquired a motorised burr to enable him to provide a more complete service

  • Vettings; both 2 and 5 stage vettings can be carried out. Due to the local geography we are often being asked to vet our own clients' horses. This can be a delicate situation, please call to discuss any requirements
