Story
Teddy was born with severe neck injuries, it could have been during birth, or there could have been a fox attack. His mother rejected him as he was just too weak to feed, and could not stand up for 2 days.
We've given him round the clock care to build up his strength, and we finally got him walking and playing.
Today Teddy took a turn for the worse, and would not stand up. We called the vet in, and it looks like Teddy has a neurological problem. possibly an abscess on his spine.
To survive he needs intensive care, antibiotics, and veterinary treatment.
Being closed for a month, we have zero income. We aren't a farming farm, just a petting and educational farm. We don't milk or market, so rely completely on customers for all animal costs.
We also have 250+ other animals to feed and care for, including a raccoon, and lots more lambs!
Please share our cause.
You can follow our story on Facebook, we are live everyday at 12 & 4 with our beautiful animals - Animal Farm Adventure Park

5 years agoTeddy has had his splints fitted to help his legs while we wait for the antibiotics to take effect. He has responded well to treatment and is running around, very alert and feeding well. He has had a steroid injection for that extra boost, exactly what we wanted! Any funds raised over our target will go towards Teddy's whole life care, we'd love to build him a special house, so he has somewhere special to sleep while all the other lambs sleep with their Mummys. Please keep sharing, so we can keep Teddy in the best care & treatment available

5 years agoTeddy has been improving, but today he twisted his back foot. Tomorrow the vet is going to splint his back leg, and give him a steroid injection. We hope that this pushes Teddy out of the danger zone, and he is back to his playful self! We'll be live at 12 on Facebook, hope you can join us with Teddy

5 years agoAfter his sleepover We are overwhelmed by your support for Teddy! So far we have had one vet visit, she has recommended antibiotics, and continued interaction and physio. If we can see an improvement we can get a steroid injection for him. Today Teddy was very bright and alert, playing with us in our 12pm Facebook Live, but 4pm brought new problems. Teddy is bending his foot over when he walks, which is a bad sign of neurological problems. We will update soon with his progress this evening.
