Meet Dexter: Our Resilient Cow
Born during a stormy night on a Wisconsin hobby farm in 2020, Dexter faced a harrowing start when she became trapped under a rock in a ravine. The incident left her leg severely injured, initially leaving amputation as the seemingly only option.
Thanks to Dan's quick action and the skilled team at Michigan State University, Dexter received emergency surgery to save her leg. After weeks of treatment and antibiotics, doctors performed an innovative joint fusion procedure, giving her a functional "peg leg" instead of requiring amputation.
Dexter made a remarkable recovery and found her forever home at Barn Sanctuary on August 7, 2020. Today, she continues to thrive and inspire everyone who meets her.

Your sponsorship helps provide Dexter with daily care, regular medical check-ups, and coverage for any unexpected emergency care. Please consider sponsoring her to ensure she continues receiving the exceptional care she deserves.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups Arugula
1 cup Sauerkraut
1 tbsp + 1 tsp Just Mayo
2 tsps Ketchup
4 slices Rye bread
2 Chao original 'cheese' slices
4 ounces Traditional seitan
2 Oranges

Directions:
1. Produce Prep: Rinse the arugula. Press excess moisture from the sauerkraut. Cut the orange into slices.
2. In a small bowl, stir together the Just Mayo and ketchup. Spread the mixture on both slices of rye bread, and then stack one piece with the Chao original 'cheese' slice(s), traditional seitan, sauerkraut and arugula.
