Ripped off hoof

On Wednesday the 6th I was at the cow shed when a cow jumped out of a yard and got her hoof twisted and stuck in a corner of the triangle yard.
She somehow ripped off part of her hoof. It was hanging on by the skin. There was blood going all over the ground. You could see its bones. It made me feel ‘sick to the bone’. Somehow it stood up and started walking down the race. Our worker went and got it and put it in the paddock.
We got a guy out to shoot it because it sat down and couldn’t get up again. While this was sad, it meant the cow did not suffer. I had to tell my sister her cow was no longer with us.

TWTW(the week that was)

During this week on Wednesday and Thursday Carmen has been coming to teach us first aid. Although i know some of the things she’s teaching me it good to know the more technical things. For reading we have been reading procedures after we have read the procedure we get to make it me and Jonathan made a compass but it didn’t really work. I think it was because of the wind. (That was a bummer). In hope to do more procedures because they are fun to do. With our blogs we have been commenting on other peoples posts on their blogs.
