[QUOTE="Loch Valley Fold, post: 539665, member: 8216"] It's always hard to lose an animal. We have a dairy farm & we sometimes have cows with calving paralysis. We get a bottle of pain killer can't remember the name but I guess it would be under a different name/brand here in Aus than the US. anyway we inject 20ml another 20ml 24hrs later into the animal wait 15 -20mins than lift the cow up with hip lifters. Let her stand in those until the blood gets going around her legs & she is quietly standing there than we take the hip lifters off. back the tractor away & leave her standing up. If she doesn't want to stand up we'll lift her up massage the legs than lay her back down on the opposite side to what she was laying on. We only lost 1 cow this ear to calving problems & she had a set of twins & gave up the fight for life. [/QUOTE]
