Get to know more about Beethoven

Beethoven is a real survivor! His flock was attacked by dogs, resulting in 9 sheep being killed. The farmer thought Beethoven had also died, even going so far as to put Beethoven’s body in the garage until they could bury everyone. After 36 hours, they went to take his body for burial, and he was still alive! While they did have a veterinarian come out initially, Beethoven needed a lot more intervention than the farmers could handle. We took him in and after intensive treatment, Beet did recover. His ears had been bitten off and he suffered multiple bite wounds. Beethoven’s ear canals were damaged and he is mostly deaf. The farm kindly released a female lamb so that Beethoven could have a friend during his recovery. He and Hildy are often found side by side. Beethoven LOVES Animal Care Director, Meg, and she loves him!
