WE KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH
As horse, livestock, and pet owners ourselves; we know how devastating losing one of our four legged family members can be ! We are here for you every step of the way. From the moment you call, we want to help ease your grieving process as much as possible! Some need a shoulder to lean or a hand shake that is genuine from a friend, we can be both.
THE RIG
Our truck is a brand new Ram 5500 with a 12’ dump body and 4’ walls. After our personal experience doing ride alongs with All Animal Recovery having a 4 wheel drive vehicle is paramount. Having 4WD allows us to get closer to the deceased animal that may have passed away in a snowy or muddy pasture. By having a dump truck instead of a dump trailer we can get into tighter spots and again closer to the carcass for easier removal. The truck is equipped with a 12,000lb winch with a braided rope instead of a cable. The rope is safer and not nearly as destructive if it rubs against a barn, stall, fence post, etc. We also had two custom ramps made. The ramps are easier to clean each day and make for a cleaner surface than wood ramps. The aluminum ramps are smoother than wood and allows the deceased animal to slide on easier. We are equipped with several snatch block style pulleys and are capable of making multiple 90 degree turns if needed to pull a deceased animal out of a stall or other tight spot. The 4’ high walls on the dump body may seem like overkill, however it keeps your deceased loved one out of sight from the public while taking them to their final resting place.

ROADKILL PICK-UP
Most towns and counties will pick up roadkill that is on a county or state road. But what about when the animal dies off the road and on private property? Unfortunately, the local government agencies will not pick up and dispose of the carcass. The responsibility falls back on the landowner. Hearts & Hooves Livestock Services is there to help! Picking up dead wildlife is no sweat!
