Sparkle And Shandy Visit The Vet

Poor Sparkle the Duck had a trip to the vets last week as she had an egg stuck.

Poor Sparkle the Duck had a trip to the vets last week as she had an egg stuck. This paralysed her legs so she needed an urgent visit to the vets to remove it. Sparkle has had lots of TLC and has now made a full recovery. You can find her at the sanctuary waddling about with her friends.

Our old girl Shandy also had a visit from the vets as she has been struggling with her arthritis. She was on her best when getting her X-Rays. After reviewing the scans it showed that Shandy has severe arthritis in her Stifles and Hocks. It was then decided that she would be injected with steroids to help her and within hours we could already see an improvement!
