Xan - I am so sorry. I have always admired your horsemanship and dedication to the welfare of your steeds. And I have enjoyed your tales over the years of your adventures with your horses. I am very sorry that this chapter had such a sad ending.

A thousand hugs, Xan. You are a very strong, brave and loving horse owner.
Godspeed, Baby Bronto, we will miss all the delightful stories and photos your Xanthoria posted about you.

My eyes are stinging with tears right now. I know that you already knew you had to let him go, but I hope that something is found that will just reinforce in your mind that what you did was really the only choice. I am so very sorry that the hopes and dreams you had wrapped up in this horse never came to fruition. It's a very hard thing to come to terms with. (((hugs))) to you

Xan I am so sorry, letting go of hopes and dreams in the prime of life is a special kind of hell. Fingers crossed some answers are found that help make sense of it all. Hugs.

Xan you are a gifted storyteller. And unfortunately, it is the gift that has got me crying because I can feel your pain through your story.
I'm sorry he is gone.

The insurance company just sent me a request for payment for another year of coverage - haha! I may have been hemorrhaging cash to keep this horse going, but even I am not daft enough to pay insurance post mortem...
I do hope they find something catastrophic in there on necropsy. When I think about how hard he tried despite it all, well... what a horse. I used to wonder why he was so heavy in the hand towards the end and I suppose neck arthritis will do that. Any other animal would have just told me to buck off and go bother someone else.
My good, good boy <3 <3 <3

Yes, B Bronto was SO SO GOOD! It is amazing to see that despite all of his challenges, how much he kept giving. Wishing him pain-free gallops in the next dimension, and a good rest and recovery for you.

I’m so sorry. I’m glad he passed easily and I hope you can take some comfort in the life you gave him despite the challenges. I also hope you find some answers in the necropsy.
