OUR APPROACH
The key to great dairy farm health is your KeyVet Team.
We don’t want to know just your animals, we want to know you, your farm, your ambitions and your vision for the future. We don’t just care for your animals we care for you and for the success of your farm. This all starts with the KeyVet Team, including your dedicated KeyVet, who works closely with you to maximise the return from your production animals.
We've been here for a long time, amongst it all, working alongside you and getting our hands dirty. You’ll find VetSouth Veterinarians out amongst it in all weather, day and night. And let’s just come straight out with it - dairy is a real passion. Some of our vets are dairy farmers themselves and we get involved at all levels of the industry.
We’re lucky to have assembled a top team who have different specialities and are leaders in their specific fields. What does this all mean? It means we’re equipped with knowledge, experience and resources to help you get the most out of your animals and maximise your returns.
Further, we take a lead in dairy issues, such as Mycoplasma Bovis. We stay active in the local communities and advocate for dairy farmers at a national level with Government. Why? Because we believe in dairy farming and we believe in dairy farmers. We believe in successful and sustainable farm practices and adding enduring value to farming and food. We know we can help.

DRENCH PLUS
DrenchPlus is a VetSouth client service aimed at improving herd productivity while reducing production costs. Endoparasite management is a complex issue. For this reason we developed the DrenchPlus programme with the makers of Genesis, Eclipse, ArrestC, Dectomax, Topline, Niltime LV and Eprinex to provide effective management of endoparasites. These products are proven performers from reputable manufacturers.
