Goat 70% burned in barn fire makes full recovery

PULLMAN — Despite somehow escaping a fire that engulfed a barn and killed the five other goats she shared a pen with, Emma Ulrich’s goat Millie had suffered severe burns to 70% of her body. At times there were questions whether Millie would survive. Following three months of care from veterinarians at Washington State University’s Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Millie is expected to make a full recovery from the March barn fire. She returned home, pain-free, June 14.
