Cody's Girl


We lost Cody's girl this weekend.  It was a pretty sad day.  Not sure exactly what happened but a couple of weeks ago Cody noticed a knot/growth looking thing on the back of her leg.  He tranqed her and cut it open and cleaned it out and she has been doing good ever since.  Friday we had some vicious winds.  It ripped shingles off of our house plus it ripped 3 roofs off the deer shelters in the pens. Majority of the buildings in town were damaged from the wind too.  It was CRAZY!  On top of her healing from her little surgery wound and plus the stress from the wind and huge roofs flying off she was probably just over stressed.

She loved loved loved Cody!  After his cancer scare last year he was in bed for a few days recuperating.  I fed the babies and took care of them and she could tell something was wrong with him.  She would run to our room and stare at him and one day she just decided to jump up on the bed, like a dog, and check things out for herself:)  She was always waiting for Cody at the gate anytime he would go to the deer pens.  She would NEVER let him work her through the chutes.  He would have to go in there with her and just pen her up against the wall to give her shots....she did not like that one bit!  We will miss you little girl!
