ABSTRACT:
A method and system is provided for treatment of large animals such as down cows, that is, cows which, due to physiological disorders, are unable to raise themselves. A drag mat, made from strong rubber, is placed next to the down animal, and the animal is rolled onto the drag mat. A treatment tank, having removable end door plate members is positioned in front of the down animal, and a ramp is placed nearest the head of the down animal. The drag mat, with the animal thereon, is pulled into the treatment tank by a tractor or a truck. The end door plate members are replaced and sealed to form a watertight sealed tank. Preferably, warm water is filled into the treatment tank for assisting the animal in raising itself.
