As some of you know, we collected a young boar in a horride state, he was suffering from impactation and it took him around 3 weeks for his body to relieve itself properly without assistance, he was also suffering with a very depset fungal infection, he was just skin and bone when we collected the little mite, he had very little hair and very nasty deep wounds and scabs, unfortunatly his fungal problems didnt just end at the skin. It had spread to his insides, he was dying. We battled to keep him alive with medicine, food, water and alot of tlc. He hated to be touched and would scream blue murder when it was medicine time. It was truely heartbraking. He beat the vets expectations and has survived, he has put on a ton of weight and has grown a lovely coat.

This was when he first arrived.

I'm sorry to hear things aren't so great tonight.
Well done for Joe, that's an incredible transformation, you should feel very proud.

I dont know if it was that noticable just because there was nothing of him, or because it was that large a lump. It was horrid putting him through so much pain but I'm sure hes thankful now
 
OMG how much better does he look! Well done for all your hard efforts with him! I bet he's so appreciative for all you've done for him!
