Dan Snider, Cow/Calf Producer, Milledgeville, Ill.
  Dan Snider runs more than 120 cow/calf pairs and operates a 500-head feedyard, so a quality animal health program comes first in his operation.

“I began treating everything with TETRADURE when it became available a few years back. Today, I rely on TETRADURE for all my footrot problems, including the really bad ones. Animals treated with TETRADURE seem to respond to it quickly. TETRADURE is the best thing that I have ever used for footrot treatment.”
 
Craig Gentzler, Dixon County Feeders, Allen, Neb.
  With more than 17,000 head, Dixon County Feeders depends on TETRADURE to treat cattle against footrot and pinkeye.

“We’ve been using TETRADURE to treat cattle with footrot and pinkeye for two years. It knocks out footrot better than anything else we’ve used. TETRADURE also does a good job when it comes time to treat pinkeye. Because it offers longer therapeutic levels, we don’t have to re-treat pinkeye, which saves labor costs. And the fewer times we have to push cattle through the chute, the better.”
 
Pierce Lane, Lane Cattle Company, LLC, Lowndesboro, Ala.
  Lane Cattle Company, which backgrounds more than 6,000 head each year, depends on TETRADURE 300 (oxytetracycline) Injection to treat against footrot and pinkeye.

“We’ve been using TETRADURE for footrot and pinkeye treatments since it became available in the fall of 2003. It clears up footrot quickly, so cattle can continue to perform. We recommend it to anyone looking for a footrot treatment because it just keeps on working. In a wet season like this one after we pull cattle for treatment, they want to go right back to the mud that probably caused the footrot. With TETRADURE, even if they go back to the mud we don’t have to worry about those cattle because we can see the difference.”
 
Ed Drung, Feedyard Operator, Columbus, Neb.
  Ed Drung is short on time and labor when it comes to working cattle, so he looks to TETRADURE to eliminate unnecessary treatments for pinkeye and footrot.

“Saving time and labor costs are important to our success. The results we’re seeing for pinkeye and footrot treatment are great. With TETRADURE, we treat less because it works better. And we’ve seen less soreness in the neck from not having to give as many treatments.”
 
Jeff Claborn, DVM, Twin Rivers Veterinary Clinic, Columbus, Neb.
  Dr. Jeff Claborn knows the importance of dependable, therapeutic pinkeye treatments in cow/calf operations.

“Typically, there is little opportunity for us to follow up pinkeye treatment in cattle on pasture. But this is not a problem with TETRADURE because it provides therapeutic treatment levels. Well over 90 percent of our cases are cured with only one dose. The biggest gain of using TETRADURE is saving time and labor costs because of its duration.”
 
Keith Collins, DVM, Milledgeville Vet Clinic, Milledgeville, Ill.
  Dr. Keith Collins has been a bovine veterinarian for more than 20 years, and he always has the cattle’s well-being in mind when selecting treatments.

“TETRADURE is an excellent treatment option for pinkeye and footrot. The biggest advantage is the longer duration of therapy, especially for cattle that are hard to get to, or can’t be treated for multiple days. It is more convenient to only treat once for pinkeye, but as a veterinarian I am more concerned with what is best for the animal. If I can use TETRADURE and know that I am going to consistently get a treatment at a therapeutic level, I have a way of doing my job better.”
 
Brent Parkman, Parkman Cattle Company, LLC, Montgomery, Ala.
  Parkman Cattle Company, a family-run order-buying business, depends on TETRADURE 300 (oxytetracycline) Injection to eliminate problems associated with footrot and pinkeye year-round.

“Our profitability depends on our ability to provide healthy cattle to our customers upon delivery. For the treatment of pinkeye, we use TETRADURE because it just lasts longer than anything else on the market. Most times with this product we only have to treat once for pinkeye in 60 to 70 percent of the cattle. Some of the producers we order cattle for have also requested that we use TETRADURE as a first-line treatment for cattle for BRD. Those that use it seem to like the results.”
