dog attack on pygmy goat

[kjoiner]

Freemotion: Dogs have been relocated, that is all I am can say about that! I have been using a 18ga needle for pen-g, but had thought about going to a 20ga, because the 18 is hard to get to go under skin. I am going to call vet soon and see if I can find one that will come help that knows a little about goats anyway.
Thank you everyone, I will keep you posted!

for continued improvement.

I won't use banamine longer than 3-4 days in a row. Longer than that and you risk organ damage - can't remember whether it's kidney or liver.

On a side note...he *may* rattle from now on if his esophagus was damaged. We have a doe that rattles, our vets finally narrowed it to a scar on her throat that they think was either a dog bite or an ingrown collar. She rattles when the weather gets hot and her voice is much reduced, more of a hum (phew, I thought she had some type of weird pneumonia!). Gotta love second, or third, or fourth hand goats!

Thank you everyone for all your help. We lost Louie yesterday around lunch. At least now I know he is not in pain any longer.

So sorry you lost him, it's so hard losing one.
