On the Road to Recovery...
Sprout, rescued from Pennsylvania farm with 25 other cattle, will finally have a chance to grow. This little calf arrived to our New York Shelter suffering from a severe leg infection and barely able to stand, but with intensive medical care, surgery and tender-loving care, Sprout is now on the road to recovery and beginning to walk on his own. Read more about Sprout and his friends.
