RIPLEY, Ohio -- In May, a family in Ripley, Ohio, found a baby deer in their yard shortly after he was born. They started calling him Sugar and bottle-fed him goat's milk until he could eat on his own.
At the time, he was weak and "looked horrible," said Felicia Patterson.
Today, Sugar is a strong young buck who enjoys playing with Felicia, her son Hunter, and their Labrador retriever, and they said he's become a part of the family.
But now, he may be forced to leave his family and go out into the wild.
