Sooty

Sooty caught his leg in the fork of a tree. He was rushed to the Ohio State University Veterinary Hospital, where doctors determined his leg was so severely fractured there was little hope his leg could be saved. After consulting with OSU veterinarians, Sooty's leg was removed. Within hours after the surgery he was up walking around and eating hay. He’s a strong-willed goat, and is expected to do just fine. This tough little guy is recovering at OSU, and we greatly appreciate the excellent care given to Sooty. Donations are needed to help cover the costs of the surgery and his medical care.


Sooty is transported to OSU. This SUV is on its last leg! We need a truck or van to transport animals, feed/hay, and supplies.  Please consider donating your used (but reliable) vehicle to the Ohio SPCA.
