Rescue 911

Name: Rescue 911
D.O.B.: Unknown
Origin: University of New Hampshire

Rescue joined Red Oak Hill Farm a few years ago and was ‘rescued’ from UNH because she milked too slow for their mass production. She’s a good cow and has the honored spot next to Sudden Impact in front of the fans which is a good spot to have in the hot summer months. She also has a place in our hearts because she survived a barn fire we had 2 years ago and a portion of her neck was burned quite badly. But as you can see she’s all healed and back to romping in the fields.

Last month Rescue stepped on one of her teats and pulled it plum off. She’s OK and this is actually a somewhat regular occurance on dairy farms. We had the vet come out to take a look and she’s healed up fine. You can imagine she milks even slower now but for all that this cow has been thru, she’ll be with us for the rest of her days.
