Hi, this morning I found my year old goose laying down under the stairs with blood on her neck. I think she was attacked by my neighbors dog (who previously killed my goat). Her neck is folded over and she wont move it, she also is not interested in eating or drinking. We put her in the bath tub with a blanket and she is just standing there. Please help.
 
Oh dear! I'm sorry about your goose.
I don't know much about their care at all - let's see if we can find someone who does

If you have photos of the wounds and how her neck is bent, I'm sure that will be helpful for the others.

In the meantime try to encourage her to drink, feed can wait, but dehydration can set in fairly quickly. I'm sure you have tended to her wounds, but you can flush those with saline or diluted betadine, then apply vetericyn or triple antibiotic ointment.

It sounds like you are trying to keep her as comfortable as you can and warm - that is good.
Let us know how she is - I wish I could help more.
 
Hi, thank you so much for the reply she is moving her neck and eating and drinking she even was walking into my lap to cuddle. We found the wound and it was not that big. She is just sore and tired righ now.
