This guy is tough as they come!!!
Trooper was born at 310-311 days gestation and rejected by his mom. We were able to restrain her and make her let him nurse for 3.5 days. Now he's been on the milk bowl exactly half his life (which is to say, 3.5 days of milk bowling). He's fiesty and sweet. Filling in well and his legs are coming out perfectly straight despite how very windswept he was at the start and he's looking real necky and upright like I like 'em ... although truly now being his MOM, you know I'd like him even if he had 3 ears and 4 eyes
I took these pictures of him this morning. It's a muddy mess here from day upon day of rain, but he still liked running around in the tall grass

Thanks for looking at my boy!!! This is the first time I've really ever hand raised a newborn baby "anything" and am really loving Trooper
