  • Neurological Exam.
  • Upon request a written report of the findings will be provided

There will be a clinic fee or farm call fee based upon the location of the Prepurchase.

  • Blood pulled and held for a drug screen (blood held for 6 months & then discarded unless you ask us to send it to the lab)
  • Comprehensive drug screen
  • X-rays are per view; most joints require 4 views.
  • Both front feet
  • Both Hocks
  • Stifles are 3 views each
  • The back

We require a credit card on file that will be charged on completion of the examination. If you move forward with the purchase, we will need an email from the previous owner and you, notifying us so we can transfer ownership to you.
