Had our first ever case this year of Pasteurellosis.
Checking sheep yesterday evening and there in the field my oldest ewe lamb was laying down very listless, her breathing very laboured and a snuffly nose.
Just picked her up slung her over the quad bike seat (she weighs 17 kilos) then transfered her to car and rushed her down vets, (as luck would have it, it was surgery time) The vet on arrival, after examining her gave her two injections straight into the vein after weighing her to make sure right dose. Then another injection under the skin. Normal instructions to keep her propped up as breathing so bad. Also given more injection for next five days if she pulled through. Outlook not good...
Up into shed this morning and there she is with Mum looking as nothing had happened, other than her breathing still a bit laboured.
So just be aware if they are vaccinated it might not work in time. She had her first injection at three weeks and was due for her second today at 7 weeks. I hasten to add that she could not have that, as vet advised this morning to leave that for several days until she was totally over it.
