To The Owners – what a fabulous horse Barbaro was! My husband and I both cried when we watched the news last night of the fight was over. Just a few days ago, he looked so bright and alert – his death was indeed a shock. Barbaro’s memory will also be with us. Diane

To The Owners Of Barbaro:

Today must be a very sad day for you. As you have tried to do all that you could to save such a beautiful animal that you loved so dearly. May God bless and keep you during such a difficult time. And may Barbaro now rest in peace with no more pain and discomfort. God Bless, for he knows best. Thanks for letting go after doing all that you could do.

Dear Barbaro,

You can’t imagine how I felt today after learning that you were no longer with us. Now you are at peace and won’t be in pain. Your new life will be on the other side now where you will once again roam the green pastures of Heaven. You will be sadly missed by us all.

My prayers are with Barbaro and for his recovery without pain. No words can express the compassion I feel for the owners who are having him taken care of instead of “put down.” These are true animal lovers and will not worry about the expense to properly care for him. I will keep praying and watching for updates on him and hope and pray they are good ones. Thank you for being such caring people. I had 2 Tennessee Walkers in the 70′s and I know how you must feel about Barbaro as I loved my horses. God Bless You.

I hope and pray for Barbaro to recover and be pain free. However, I think the bigger picture requires us to question whether asking Barbaro or any other horse to compete in such a grueling attempt as the Triple Crown races, at such a tender and bone-vulnerable age, is truly humane.

My prayers and best wishes are with you Barbaro every single day. We can only hope that with the support and expertise of your owner(s) and physicians you will survive this tragic event. Nothing more beautiful than nature at it’s best….and that is what you are.

Barbaro has many fans throughout Canada. His bloodline includes great Canadian bred champions. This horse is a fighter and possesses the heart of a lion. He will hopefully sire superb athletes that will carry on his shortened legacy.
