Tenance

Today coming home, I noticed a horse on the side of the road with cops. Oh dread... so I went home grabbed my vet kit, called for backup, and returned to the scene. Sure enough, a bus had hit a 2 year old chestnut stud colt. His cannon bone was broken and his leg dangling. It was sick. I was very impressed at how calm he was during the whole ordeal, and he wasn't even in shock!

We buried him at school and the kid that takes care of the horses is going to give me a rock to mark his grave. Sad sad. His name (from what I understand) was Tenance. He had a star on his forehead and two matching white socks on his back legs.
