Default My Nina Rose's Disco Rico colt quite ill
Our Disco Rico-My Nina Rose colt, sick a few weeks ago with a seemingly typical foal respiratory infection, has taken very ill with what vets now feels is rhodococcus virus. With what appears to be an abscess in his pelvis, the prognosis isn't good. I'll keep everyone informed.

Appreciate everyone's kind comments. This is a very tough break. He was a fun colt with a great personality.

Sorry to hear this. Tough to lose any animal but always seems worse when they are so young.

I am now learning that there are things about this sport that can really take the wind out of one's sails. Sorry Steve
