Bria is only about seven months old and was suffering terribly at a backyard farm before someone found her and brought her to our attention. For two months and for reasons still unknown, she couldn't walk and instead was crawling on her front knees. The other goats bullied and picked on her, making it impossible to get food or water. The owners refused to grant her any medical attention or support. She was transported immediately to The Gentle Barn and met by our founders and staff who brought in our veterinarians, so we can start to restore what is wrong, fix what is broken, and give her the life that she deserves.

Bria is emaciated, malnourished, and scared. Her muscles and tendons in her front legs are set at a ninety-degree angle making it impossible for her to stand or walk normally. Our veterinarians took blood and fecal samples and are performing many tests in the hopes of finding answers. In the meantime, we have started her on a consistent and rigorous physical therapy regime which includes light therapy, deep tissue massage, acupuncture, chiropractic care, sports medicine therapy, Sun Chlorella Super Food supplement for her vitamin deficiency, and energy healing.

We will either be able to extend her front legs and restore her mobility, get her extended enough to be assisted by braces to walk, or she will need a wheelchair for the rest of her life. We will try everything to give her the best possible outcome for a good, comfortable, safe, and loved life. This will take a long time, and we are in this for the long haul. We cannot do this without you, thank you for helping us heal her!
