I was contacted by a student at a vet school who wanted to save a pair of goats from going to auction as her school sends all animals at the end of each semester to auction unless they have are spoken for ahead of time. I absolutely wanted to help and with the help of amazing people, we arranged transport each doing different legs of the trip. They both arrived in December 2018 just about 3 months old. They had bonded on the trip and the two of them are always laying together. One of the definite couples on the farm. Charlie and Blondie were the start of the flying ear gang as those ears are absolutely amazing. Blondie was all sweetness with a tiny bit of spunk. She loved everyone and like Dee, had CAE, a goat disease CAE that she would have gotten as a baby nursing from her mom before she even came to LBFS. The vet school should have never been breeding goats with CAE. She fought so hard but eventually she told me it was time. She lived longer than the vets ever imagined she would and got to enjoy almost an extra year of sunshine with her friends. It did not make it any easier saying goodbye. We miss her so much.
Blondie was born on September 24, 2018 and passed away in August 30, 2021.
