A Modern Day Fairytale

Once upon a time there were two ponies who were friends. These two ponies liked the same pastures and the same kind of hay, and they generally got along. They were happy ponies.

There were also some crabby ponies that were bored by their pastures, and because they were jealous that the happy ponies were chipper and contented, they were generally negative and critical of the happy ponies. One day those crabby ponies developed a horrible case of navicular disease - which is of course characterized by severe lameness - and they died.

The End.

Good story. :)

Off hand, I would say you are not in the best of moods.

I would have called them much worse than crabby ponies, but it's still a lovely story with a happy ending! :)

I always thought lame horses were euthanized, e.g., "put down."
