[Blackbelly] Hurt sheep

[Nancy & Tom Richardson]

>Good morning,  my husband found one of my favorite jacob sheep ewes caught 
>in a fence this morning. I don't know how long she was there maybe 
>overnight. She has a wound on her leg just above the ankle area which I put 
>a little pennicillian on and also sprayed with iodine. I gave her a tetnus 
>shot and about 6cc of penn. I don't know yet if she hurt her hip permantely 
>or not as she hasn't tryed to stand since he got her out. Any other 
>suggestions of what I can do for her? I will continue to give 6 cc of penn 
>for the next 3 or 4 days. Any suggestions would be helpful. I know that I 
>can't wrap or bandage her leg because of being a wooly. Thanks Nancy
