The Waldo’s Horn Buster is a hydraulic dehorner which has been sold in Australia since 1990. From 2014, Dominion Surgical Instruments has assumed the manufacturing of the hydraulic dehorner within Australia with the release of an improved version of the iconic Waldo’s Horn Buster. The hydraulic dehorner uses a portable hydraulic motor to drive a handheld hydraulic guillotine which shears off a horn in under 2 seconds.
