Why is the claw so important?
About 65 % of culled dairy cows are leaving their herds because of claw diseases, as SHEARER (2007) mentioned. 15 % are culled in the reason of direct problems with the legs, the left 50 % in another reason caused by injuries of the claw.
There is undoubtly no other feature with such inherent influence on the annual removal of cows. Lameness is also strongly associated to low milk yield, animal health, and of course to the economy of a dairy farm.
Who we are:
Decades of practical knowledge and experience with claw health in dairy cows and beef cattle. Two heads, Findeisen und Dr. Klindworth, and also a good team.
Whether a mega or a family farm, every claw is in good hands by our personal care.

Fertility in cattle, rearing calves and heifers are further specialties of Dr. Klindworth. Let your livestock also benefit from his longterm educational background.
Some of the farms he permanently supervised belong to the top ten in Germany!
Dr. Klindworth himself managed for several years one commercial heifer rearing operation.
Already in 2008 the extrapolated
