Barbaro emerged from seven hours of surgery Sunday night to repair life-threatening injuries and "practically jogged back to the stall,'' said Dr. Dean Richardson, who performed the procedure a day after the colt broke his right rear leg in three places at the Preakness.

Richardson outlined Barbaro's medical problems: a broken cannon bone above the ankle, a broken sesamoid bone behind the ankle and a broken long pastern bone below the ankle. The fetlock joint -- the ankle -- was dislocated.

This is the dumbest fucking shit I have ever seen. Why the fuck are people making a big deal about the surgery of some horse that will never race again? ESPN ran this whole fucking 15 minute story on this, talking to the doctor and all this shit. Who gives a flying fuck?

For fuck's sake people wrote get well soon letters to a fucking horse.

Unbelieveable.

unlike dogs who have much better ballance, a horse needs all four of their legs to be able to keep their ballance.
also their weight, you try to ballance 1100 to 1300 pounds on three legs and then walk.
and yes he will never again race or for that matter be a good ridin horse.
he will always have problems.
