About Us
We’re all in this together
Since we were founded in 1987, we’ve earned our solid reputation and enviable credibility as the go-to national voice on animal welfare issues for industry, media, government, non-governmental organizations and the public. We work collaboratively and cooperatively with key stakeholders from across Canada, based on the premise that we can have a greater impact creating positive change by being a part of the process instead of being apart from it.
DrBrian Livestock Farm is a global development organization that empowers smallholder farmers to lift themselves out of poverty by harnessing the collective power of technology, food products and grassroots-level partnerships. Our team of engineers and growers works to develop new ways to make our systems more efficient and easier to operate.
DrBrian Livestock Farm has utilized many years of experience to establish itself as a provider of premium farm and ranch products from livestock handling and equipment to animal health & land management solutions.
Honesty & Integrity
DrBrian Livestock Farm was founded originally as the DrBrian Livestock Group on the key principles of honesty, integrity & premium service in all our transactions. We service farms and ranches of all sizes, from the smallest acreages, to the largest multi-acre farmsteads.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
We believe our movement is stronger when individuals of different socioeconomic backgrounds; abilities; worldviews; geographical origins; genders; and sexual orientations bring together their knowledge, lived experiences, interests and approaches for the benefit of animals.
