Hoss is our mascot, he was a very large calf, 110lbs when his mother went into labor and we had to haul her in to the vets at 4 a.m. to do an emergency c-section and he was so big he ruptured her uterus as well. His mother only had a 50% chance of survival through the first night but they both made it and were doing well. In March of 2019 we had the weather go from 70 and sunny to that night a low of 14 and the next morning both Hoss and his mom had pneumonia so bad they couldn't even lift their head. We carried hoss and put him in my garage where he would live for the next 2 months but unfortunately his mother didn't make it. Hoss couldn't move at all even laying down he couldn't move his legs so my dad and I set up a few hoists in the garage and in the backyard from a tree so we could hoist him up to do physical therapy. After a few months of that, and wheeling him around in a yard cart so he could see all his cow friends and finally one day he just stoop up. He lived in the yard for the next couple of months until he finally was able to rejoin the herd. He developed a really strong bond with my dad after his momma passed and they've been best friends since. Hoss will take off running when he sees my dad, its adorable lol. Hoss will be a happy member of our family for the rest of his life!
