Lift Leaves Cows Legs Free To Walk, Nurse
 ✖  |
"It's the only cow lift in the world that lets you walk and control the cow after lifting without causing trauma. And it's as comfortable as a hospital gurney bed," says Doug Ross, who holds North American manufacturing and marketing rights to the "Cow Lift 2000" for down cows.
Invented in Australia, Ross started selling imported units a couple years ago. Sales are so strong he now manufactures the units himself and has sold them across both the U.S. and Canada.
"There's nothing on the market that comes close to this product. You can lift a sick animal without causing any trauma or hurt and use it to walk the animal to help them get back on their feet," says Ross.
Designed to hang by chain from a front-end loader, you simply pull the side straps under the cow and then position the stretcher frame under it's belly. Once the straps are in place, you clip them to the lift frame which is suspended by chain from a loader or tractor boom.
"It's adjustable from young heifers to large cows and provides good access for suckling calves or for milk stripping. It's handy because you can throw it in the trunk of a car or back of a pickup," says Ross.
