Bobby was PTS today.

For anyone who remembers that he has been lame since last summer, we finally got to the bottom of it!

The ligament that holds the hip joint in place (sorry don't know its name) had snapped and the shift in the joint had worn away the cartilage (sp) so there was none left. The vets opened the joint to have a look and thats what was found. He was PTS there and then.

RIP my brave, kind boy.

Aw I am so sorry to hear that

He looked a very lovely and sweet boy ( reminds me a little of our Mcfly too) so you touched a nerve with me there.
The only upside is that he is no longer in pain but even so it is so very hard to do the right thing and to say goodbye.
I can only offer words of comfort to you at this awful time and I am really sorry x
RIP little Bobby

I remember when I put my mare to sleep last year I was just devasted so lots of hugs to you at this time xxx
 
He was beautiful.
I am so sorry to hear this sad news. I hope your pain soon turns to happy memories of your time with him.
RIP Bobby. Gallop free, pain free
