~sigh~ They really did try. ...That all horses injured in our service had the care and love that he did.

Run free, Barbaro.

Ping!

[Thywillnotmine]

I'm so sorry...

[ecurbh]

Damn.

So long, big fella.

The green fields of heaven are his.

How heartbreaking for the people who fought so hard to save him.

So sad. Good luck on your journey over the Rainbow Bridge, Barbaro.

I'm so sorry to hear about this. He had been doing so well until this last couple of days, and then to have this happen really brings home that horses, for all their power and size, can be such fragile creatures.

May Barbaro lie down in green pastures, and God lead him beside the still waters...

This is really sad news today. The three of us had some very good discussions on threads in the past about Barbaro.

They really did try. ...That all horses injured in our service had the care and love that he did.

I had trust in Dr. Richardson and Barbaro's owners to do the right thing and not let this magnificient animal suffer. I do believe they did manage this. My hope is much was learned in treating Barbaro which will stand to benefit all our beloved pets.

Barbaro had such great heart.

Sad. Yesterday I thought the vet might have been preparing people.
