Nice big horse with liver disease

[JillA]

Has been PTS about 2 hours ago - nicely with no reaction. He didn't respond to the steroids this morning but was down in his box and really struggling. Vet was very good, went through all the physiology and said his liver was so hepatetic that if he gave him emergency treatment today we would only be back in the same situation tomorrow. Loanee is devastated although she could not have done more
Poor old lad, he was one of the nice ones and only 18.
RIP Alfie

What a shame, you did all you could for him.

 

[meesha]

so sorry, sounds like he went very peacefully.

 

[Midlifecrisis]

What rotten news but sounds a peaceful kind of end.

 

[Pearlsasinger]

So sorry!
At least the end happened as intended. It is extra upsetting, though, when they are still relatively young.

Oh sorry Jill

So sorry to hear this xx

Sorry Jilla for your loss, but glad he went peacefully, I have 2 recovering from liver issues and one with IBD so I know it's hard for you. You have done what's best for you and I know it was not a decision made lightly RIP Alfie.
