Nemo was purchased for $100 pre-auction back in September '06 by RCY. (The photo below shows his condition on day 1.) 27 yo arab gelding He put on weight very quickly.. a very easy keeper. When his weight was good enough he was started to work to see what he could do, he was very sound and had a great attitude. Beginners were put on him and he had great prospects. Unfortunately, a recent vet check resulted in a cancer diagnosis and it also turns out he is both blind and deaf Blind and deaf wouldn't be that big of a deal except he has recently taken to running full speed in the pasture and has beent hitting trees, fences and the barn... so with great difficulty the decision is being made to have to put him down. Nemo will be missed, he touched the hearts of anyone who met him.

I'm so glad his last months were spent being well-fed and well-cared for. RIP Nemo.
