You can buy the preloaded ones at valley vet & jeffers...others I'm sure. Vet type....they have curved staples that clamp around.

Stapler intended for veterinary use. However, in a pinch, I'd probably use it on myself, lol.

Mine is similar to this one. In fact, I'll probably go ahead and order an extra one to keep on hand. The one I have came with the staple remover tool also. There's a tiny learning curve. I missed on the first shot - only caught one side of the skin. The trick seems to be to pinch the skin up between your fingers and then pull the staple trigger. It was honestly very simple and easy. I had the teen girl next door hold the goat for me. She was a little unhappy about the cleaning procedure but hardly flinched at all with the actual stapling. Wound still looks good - no heat, no swelling, no discharge.

Grandkids have been here since Thursday. We've had a blast! There has been fishing, cooking, swimming, eating, karaoke-ing, Chinese buffet-ing and an epic Monopoly game! Very few farm chores have been accomplished. Too hot to do much anyway. Grandson helped me get the staples out of the doeling a couple days ago. I definitely appreciated the help a lot more than the goat did, lol!
I noticed a whiff of something familiar in the air recently. The does have started cycling and the bucks have started rutting...seems early but I guess not too early. I'm going to line up a few dates and try out having babies a couple months earlier than usual.
Need to go get some morning grub rustled up for these kiddos.
