A Note from the Attending Veterinarian When a program boasts 50 years in the cattle business you know there have been a lot of good decisions along the way. It has been the pleasure of Stettler Veterinary Clinic Ltd. to work alongside Combest Limousin Farm for a number of years, many of which were before my time here. In my nearly nine years having the privilege to work with Lynn, it is a mixed feeling of both joy and a little sorrow as this fine group goes up for sale! The joy is in the quality. To be in this herd, a very high standard must be met and Lynn has never allowed compromise. Today you are offered the chance to purchase top Limousin genetics and you can be certain that they will perform in your herd. From a health perspective this herd holds the gold standard for all areas of wellness including vaccination, parasite control, and breeding soundness examination. Again, no compromise!
2 COMBEST LIMOUSIN FARM COMPLETE DISPERSAL
As people, I can’t say enough about Lynn and Ty Combest. All of you who know them would agree they are a pleasure to know and will have experienced their passion for the beef industry in the many shows, sales and events they’ve joined with and in the local community. Alberta stands out in this country for exceptional beef production and quality product unmatched even on the world table. It is the purebred cattleman who constantly strives to raise the bar and Lynn’s program does exactly that. This herd is a legacy represented not only by top Limousin genetics, but also by one of the greatest cattleman you’ll meet. Enjoy the sale! Best Regards, Jackie Dobinson, DVM Stettler Veterinary Clinic Ltd.
