[QUOTE="JMJ Farms, post: 1346180, member: 24583"] Had one down for 30 days. Same scenario. Used the same hip lift. When you think it's tight enough turn it at least one more round. Sores are inevitable. Worse thing that can happen is for it to slip off. But if you've been getting her up for 15 days you're probably getting pretty good at it. The one we had that was down 30 days gets up and down by herself now but she won't ever get right bc it's been close to 6 months. She uses both back legs fully but her balance has been affected. She's wobbly side to side when she comes to a trough. When she's grazing and walking slowly you can't tell anything is wrong at all. To each their own and I know it's very time consuming and aggravating but as long as the animal is trying I feel obligated to try also. [/QUOTE]
