We received a call via the RSPCA about a hog trapped in a trench in Douglas Road, Upton. Luckily he was sat on a very small ledge, just above the water level. We fished him out with a net and brought him home for some food and to warm up.
We collected another hog from Upton Vets with a broken pelvis. This chap will have several weeks of cage rest so that the break (which is not a bad one) can repair itself.
The phone has been going all day – it’s one of those days!
Darling Henrietta gave me a few sleepless nights but is now doing brilliantly Who doesn’t love a happy outcome? Little
Duncan is back from the vets now, having had his left hind leg amputated.
He will have a course of antibiotics to fight off any infection, and pain relief.
The notes from the vet state that he has been eating well, and has been to loo, which is important after an operation.
The helpline is available 24/7. Please check our FAQs before calling.
