RIP Deputy Commander

I met him a few years ago and he was so regal. I still have him on my screen saver. It sounds like they tried very hard to save him. :(

Why doesn't Ballena Vista just come out of the closet and say what happened to this horse? a "decline in overall physiological and neurological health" doesn't tell us squat. They have been non-committal ever since the troubles began with this horse. They had earlier said that he had an unspecified issue and was being treated. :roll:
