Can i use horsey knowledge to treat a cow!?

[Ali_H]

Well dad has a cow that is then past had leg problems and he asked me if i could bandage it up because he is taking it to a show and doesnt want any injuries or strain to occur on the way.

Do you think it will be ok with Gamgee etc.... following the same principles as bandaging up a horse?? I did try my mums horses old travel boots... but they did fit suprisingly! hehe

Aww bless it!

I don't see why you couldn't - I would be very careful though, not to get kicked or anything!

ahh she is a friendly old thing... well quite yound really.. i can sit on her and walk her round the field... i practise my circus skills on her hehe!!

I don't see why you couldn't but surely with all the Foot and Mouth your dad won't be allowed to transport the cow????

Good point - I hadn't thought of that

The show isnt for 2 months... so we are hoping that the foot and mouth will have been controlled by then. The reason i am asking so soon is because i need to get in some practise and dad wont want to take her in a lorry for two hours if we cant support her legs in some way

LOL Just make sure you take some pics of the bandaged up cow!

I have discovered only one problem so far.... i need a bigger piece of Gamgee!!
