Oh Sweet Babs! I am SO sorry! She was a beautiful goat! I bet she gave you tons of milk.

Moonpie was 12.5 years old. She was my first goat, bought her and her two sisters on Craigslist and knew zero about goats. I still have one sister. Her last few years she was retired from kidding but would still come into milk. It was getting harder and harder for her to walk, I had been giving her CBD oil. A few nights ago she was late coming in and when I found her she was open mouth breathing, temp 105.9. Gave her banamine, and Nuflor. Fever was gone in the morning but still labored breathing. No cough, no runny nose or goopy eyes. Added Dex to the cocktail, but still no improvement. She would eat and drink if I hand fed her and held the garden hose for her. Decided today to take her to the vet knowing that her time had come. Loaded her up and went to change my clothes; 5 minutes later came out and she was gone. She wanted to die at home. My dairy is named for her and she is the goat in my logo.
