The Weekend...

Very sad news from Shiloh as we said good-bye to adopted and boarded horse, Trooper, who had to be euthanised at the vet clinic after a pasture accident. Trooper, who was renamed Xanthos by his adoptive owner, Vic, was found early on Saturday morning in his pasture standing on three legs. We don't know what happened to him, there was not any outward sign of trauma but he could not bear weight on his one hind leg. He was immediately driven into the clinic where his injury proved to be to extensive for hope of recovery. Little Xanthos was brought back to Shiloh where he was buried. Vic loved Xanthos so very much and took such great care of him and this is a devastating event for all of the Shiloh Family. Xanthos enjoyed his years hanging out in the pasture with his pals and exploring the ranch with Vic. Rest in peace, little guy.
