Best Answer

Because many rescued animals have come from abusive conditions, however, these cattle may have more health problems and a shorter life span than other cattle.

On the average, adult male cattle ("bulls" if not castrated; "steers" if castrated) of breeds such as Angus, Jersey, and Hereford weigh between 1,200 and 1,800 pounds, and adult females ("cows") of the same breeds weigh between 1,100 and 1,500 pounds. Males and females of larger breeds, such as Brahman, Brangus, Charolaise, and Holstein, can weigh 2000 to 2800 pounds and around 2000 pounds, respectively. Many of the larger cattle, such as Holsteins, rarely reach their full weight and height before they are slaughtered, so animals in a sanctuary setting can grow very large as compared to those seen in industry.

Puggles can have a lot of health problems. One that has caused me problems is their bladders. Puggles can pass stones into their bladders that are to big to come out by themselves. My puggle, and other puggles, had to have surgury to have them removed. You can buy special dog food at vet offices that help prevent the stones from forming.
