Tina Passes Away at Dalraddy Cottage

Sad news - our last rescued pygmy goat "Tina" passed away recently. She had been with us just 12 months and had finally got over her fear of people. Her life until we had her was very hard - she was used to have kids and very neglected by her owners - we estimated that she was about 8 years old and her hooves had never been clipped until she came to us - then it took two of us to hold her as she was so scared.


The vet was surprised that she had lasted another 12 months so we must have been doing something right - at least she died in a nice environment.
