Miracle is a middle aged Pygmy goat that came to Red Tree to assess her abnormal udder. Having recently came into after years of chronic mastitis (udder infection) and possible trauma, one half of her udder was abnormally large due to scar tissue and breakdown of the suspensory ligaments that keep the udder close to the body wall. Walking was difficult for her and she could even catch her hooves on it (Pygmy legs are short!). An udder amputation was performed under general anesthesia, which Miracle handled like a champ! She’s healing up and back to doing goat things 🐐🐐🐐

Little Herb is a baby hedgehog 🦔 that came to us for limping. The toughest thing about this lameness exam was getting him to unroll and show us his bad leg! With some sedation and patience we were able to see that he had some thread wrapped around his foot, cutting off the circulation💔. Luckily it was caught and treated in time and we’re so happy to report Herb has made a full recovery

This beautiful girl, Clio, is a dog who takes her job seriously- she and her brother Brian protect their flock of purebred sheep from the grizzlies, black bears, coyotes, and wolves that roam their rural property.

Clio’s mobility in recent years has been declining but we are able to help her manage it 🧡

Even though she HATES the indoors she’s comfortable coming in to Red Tree for exams and treatments as we’re able to use the indoor/outdoor exam room.

Swipe to see Clio at work, and feeling SO much better after her treatments; she played with her little brother for the first time in weeks!

If your pet is having more trouble getting around, or you’ve noticed a new lump, or you just want a checkup call us to book in and we’ll address your concerns.

This shouty guy came in for a condition called bumblefoot (medical name is pododermatitis), a bacterial infection of the foot. After we treated him with antibiotics, laser therapy, and bandaging he felt good enough to strut about bossing everyone around
🤣🦆🤣 sound on!

Meet Pete! This guy might look a bit intimidating but he’s actually one of our sweetest, MOST unflappable patients. He arrived in rescue care with HUNDREDS of quills, severely underweight, parasite-ridden, and with fractured and infected teeth. In the past few months he has gained weight, been vaccinated and dewormed, was neutered, and had a dental. He’s even learned to play with toys and a ball; on arrival he seemed not to know what they were 🥹.
Pete is currently in foster care through and looking for a home.
Contact us or BARCS if you’re interested!

Cats!! Of all the species we work on at Red Tree (this week alone has seen cats, dogs, a hedgehog, a duck, a goat, and a pig come through our doors) cats are possibly the most bad a #%.
This guy came in to .haven injured, but the extent wasn’t known until we sedated and explored his neck wound 😳. Not only was his carotid artery and jugular vein RIGHT there exposed to the world, but the subcutaneous (UNDER the skin) wound stretched all the way from his eye to the entrance of his chest.
A sedated wound explore, flush, surgical repair and drain placement was performed. Fast forward a few weeks and it’s hard to tell he had a wound! Video in the comments Boomer’s Haven - Animal Rescue & Sanctuary

December’s short days and long nights can make for dark, cold farm calls.
This fiesty pet Pygmy goat named Jolene developed mastitis, an infection in her udder, and wasn’t letting her new babies nurse. With some medication and patient tiny-goat-milking we were able to get her feeling like herself again.
Helping sick patients, winter sunsets, and a singing truck dog assistant to keep me company make winter farm calls more than worth it 🐐 ✨❄️

This is DoubleWide 😂, an adorable Kunekune pig who came into Red Tree to have his inguinal hernia repaired. This occurs when there’s a defect in the abdominal wall that lets things that should be IN the abdomen (ie intestines, bladder, abdominal fat) slip into the space under the skin OUTSIDE the abdomen.
Doublewide wasn’t too fussed; he woke up and was happy to munch down a late breakfast to make up for the meal he missed 🐖🧡🐖
