R.I.P. MY FRIENDS.
HURRICANE GOT ALSIKE POISONING AS A YEARLING AND GOT MASS OF LIVER DAMAGE AND WITH ONLY 1/4 OF HIS LIVER THAT WAS LEFT WORKING HE WAS GIVEN A 30 % CHANCE TO LIVE, BUT WITH THE LIVER BEING ABLE TO GROW BACK THERE WAS A CHANCE. HURRICANE LIVED AND WENT ALONG WITH HIS LIFE LIKE MOST OTHER HORSES. WAS TRAINED TO PULL SLEDS AND GIVE TRAIL RIDES TO KIDS. BUT HE HAD MORE VET VISITS AND TESTS THEN MOST HORSES WILL HAVE IN THERE LIFE TIME. IN 2007 HE WAS TESTED AND WE WERE TOLD HE WOULD NEVER PRODUCE ANY FOALS. HE WAS ON A STRICKED HIGH PROTEIN DIET AND NO CLOVER AND HE HAD TO WARE SUN SCREAM ON REALLY SUNNY DAYS. IN JAN 2008 WE LOST HURRICANE AND TO OUR AMAZEMENT IN JULY OF 2008 MY PAINT MARE (CANDY) HAD A FOAL. JUST BY LOOKING AT HER YOU CAN TELL SHE IS FROM HURRICANE.
THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL BABY HURRIANCE YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED AND YOU WILL BE MISSED ALOT RIP MY LIL MAN.
