ROSSVILLE, Ind. (WKRN) – A central Indiana farmer jumped into a hot tub with a shivering baby cow to save the calf’s life.

Carroll County farmer Dean Gangwer told RTV6 in Indianapolis he thinks one of his cows gave birth in the snow after finding the barely breathing newborn in a snowbank earlier this week.

The third-generation farmer said he decided the quickest way to warm up the calf, named Leroy, would be to use his hot tub.

Gangwer told the TV station he “jumped in fully dressed and held Leroy up so he didn’t drown.”

Gangwer then took the calf inside and wrapped him in electric blankets.

Leroy is recovering and has started to nurse.

Gangwer said Leroy is “done hot-tubbing” but “sunbathing is definitely in his future out in the grass.”
