Dr. Frank's Calf Puller is the original obstetrical instrument developed by B.N. Frank, DVM, a specialist in veterinary obstetrics. Dr. Frank's is a precision instrument that has proven its effectiveness year after year in thousands of calving cases. The uniform tension of this unique fetal extractor does not permit slipping or backing-up of the jack. Traction on the calf and the counter-thrust against the cow induce spreading of the pelvic bones, elevation of the abdomen, and arching of the animal's back, all assisting in the natural birthing process.
