My lovely lovely horse is being PTS tomorrow after failing to respond to 6 weeks of antibiotics for an internal infection that has settled in his hock. He has had many issues, most major being the kissing spine surgery and I've had 2 good years since that but am absolutely shattered that there's no more to be done.
From something so outwardly small developing into this has completely stunned us all and both my vet and the equine specialist vet are stumped too, so much so that they will be carrying out a post mortem.
He's given so much pleasure, been such a friend and got me brave enough to hunt properly and team chase and I was so looking forward to more time with him, we're just gutted.
Dreading tomorrow, just dreading it, but at least he will be at peace and no longer in pain.
