Today was a sad day as we all said goodbye to not only a member of our herd but a member of our family ISLIP 1 NATALIA. She was a beautiful calf an even better heifer and an amazing mum and friend who will be greatly missed by us all. I only hope she is now at peace in the meadow in the sky ###x

After trying all weekend to help him we are all very very sad to say Bruiser passed away early hours, both his mum and us miss him already, however he had a nasty infection that was affecting his heart, lungs, liver and kidneys! He did so well to hold on as well as he did. He will be missed but not forgotten. 😥😥😥

Spring lamb!!
This is dori’s story......

She was born a month ago as a single, mum loved her and she was up and feeding within 15 mins, within days she was jumping on mums back like any other lamb!
Suddenly her whole world changed, when both myself and will where doing the evening check she was curdled up unable to lift her head, so she came in the house temp was low so placed in front of the Rayburn. Managed to get glucose and water into her (just). After a night of worry in the morning she was still alive and wanted to drink some milk. This gave us the hope for her, after speaking to my wonderful vets (hook Norton veterinary group) we started injections based on a B1 and neurological condition.
After 3 weeks in the house being stood up daily and cuddled all the time 2 days ago in the garden she managed to not only stand up unaided but take her first steps as well. So proud of this little lamb, dori is a keeper with a massive will to live and a piece of all our hearts ♥️...
