Disabled Lamb

Meet little Clover, one of several animals admitted last weekend.Clover is less than 3 weeks old, shortly after birth she could not walk, we have very limited history as to what has caused the issue. She has been assessed by our farm vets and is now, as well as being bottle fed regularly, she is receiving medication and physiotherapy throughout the day. This is very time consuming! We have her in a homemade harness to ensure she stands with weight on her legs, manipulate her legs and even take her walks, whilst supporting her hind, she needs to exercise regularly.She is such an amazing character, full of joy and happiness, we are all on tenterhooks hoping that she improves.
