About:  Cooper was seized from a livestock auction where many of the animals were extremely neglected and ill. Cooper and his herd were then taken to a neighboring vet college to receive treatment. Cooper had biting and sucking lice so severely that he was anemic, a collapsed trachea from long term untreated pneumonia, and a plethora of other life-threatening health concerns. Unfortunately, the rest of the goats that were taken in with Cooper passed away, and the college reached out to FARRM to help give Cooper a forever home.  Cooper's pneumonia was so severe that it took literal years for him to recover. Cooper lives with a compromised trachea, and has diminished lung capacity, and a cough that flares up occasionally that will never go away. 

Cooper has been stable for the past few years and his prognosis looks okay for the foreseeable future! We continue to monitor his condition and provide necessary care but from the outside he is a happy, healthy looking boy.                                                                                

Aside from Cooper's health concerns, he is our barnyard boss! Cooper is a mischievous, brave, and determined young man who gets what he wants, when he wants! Cooper can sometimes be a bully to some of our smaller and more introverted residents, but is a loving leader when required. Cooper spends his days destroying the infrastructure by bashing his horns into the barn walls, planning out ways to break into the feed shed, and accepting challenges from some of the other arrogant boys who want to be the barnyard boss.
