It is the best option, IMO.
Letting him suffer is not right.
I'm glad I'm not a horse, LOL.
Break your leg, and they kill you? Jeez, tough life.
on NBC today they said the horse was going to have surgery...
Barbaro's injury brings up memories of former Kentucky Derby winner Charismatic at Belmont.
I wonder if they had the horse take an MRI?
Did the horse fly down to Alabama to get a medical opinion from Dr. James Andrews?
Breaking a leg for a horse is like... oh... having a spine removed for a human.Originally Posted by ATLien
I hate to see that happen to any horse, especially one as hyped as Barbaro. Signs point to him being put down because they said if a human had suffered the same injury, we would have to be put up for 6 weeks and with horse that's almost impossible.
"They asked me if I wanted the ball in Game 6, and I said yes. I'll always say yes. That's what I did with Jack McKeon. I told him, 'Let me see how I feel tomorrow.' I went out, did a long toss, came in and said, 'I'll pitch, I want it, I want to do it.' And it ended up working out." -Josh Beckett
Barbaro wasn't that hyped. Brother Derek was the one that everyone was talking about before the Derby.
actually, it went to PA...Penn State IIRC.I wonder if they had the horse take an MRI?

Well, I was talking about once he won the Derby and the fact that he was undefeated. Once you win the Derby its like winning the Super Bowl for horse racing after that everyone begins to talk about whether or not you can win the Triple Crown.Barbaro wasn't that hyped. Brother Derek was the one that everyone was talking about before the Derby.

The hyped horses are usually the Santa Anita Derby winners, i.e. Brother Derek, Point Given, Came Home, Indian Charlie, and Free House, but the last horse to also win the Kentucky Derby was Winning Colors in 1988.
well, hes out of surgery and in the ICU. the surgeons figure hes got a 50/50 shot on pulling through. depends on if things get infected or not.
horse antibiotics have to be pretty damned big. i wonder if they are of equivalent sized in comparison as horse pills are to us?

No one recognizes the horses I named? Where are all the horse racing fanatics from Kentucky and the Cincy area?
