Injured Ewe

One of the rescued ewes was attacked by the new farmer's family dog. The old farmer notified me that the ewe had a dog bite but I pictured a small puncture mark or something. What I found instead shocked me.


Really, I almost wonder if it wouldn't have been more humane to have put her down and take her out of her misery.


But I understand how you can really want to help and see an animal make it and survive. Even if she does survive, I'm not sure if she'll ever lift her head. But she is eating, though she can't find the water so we're going to give her some electrolytes and see how she does from there. We are crossing our fingers and praying she makes a full recovery.
