Intake Video:
Intake Status: Cooper was brought at auction from Bowie and then traded around before we intercepted him. We are seeing some issues with his knees and fetlocks. He didn’t like the farrier, but he let her get his feet back in shape.
Current Status: The vet did a full exam. Unfortunately, Cooper has some deformities in his knees (you can kind of see it in the picture) that even if we operate, he has a very poor prognosis. There are issues with other joints as well. They appear to be there since birth, but left untreated or checked. This is why he was dumped at an auction. He had other internal issues we had to address as well.
Regrettably, the best decision for Cooper was to give him the Last Act of Kindness. His future life was a path full of pain with no relief.
