TMEquine - 2014-07-10 2:22 PM I love how someone can hold so much of a grudge against me that they are disliking a conversation about euthanizing a poor colt. Very tasteful. 
 Perhaps they are disliking what you are going through.    Edited to add that I am sorry that you are having to go through this. I know it is difficult and you will make the best decision that you can.

We had a mastiff that had it - she got progressively worse until she could hardly stand and wasn't able to support herself to go to the bathroom.  We put her down - that was almost 2 years ago and we just now are ready to get another dog.  Very heartbreaking condition.

I can't remember where I heard this quote first...but it is said  "There are worse things in life for an animal than death"...meaning...sometimes a humane end is far better than a life of discomfort or pain.  

We often have a hard time letting them go...but in some cases it is the kindest thing we can do for them.  If they are in chronic pain...or the quality of life isn't there and is not going to improve...well...I truly feel for your situation...and I know it's one heck of a tough call.
