Frosty Gatsby

With great sadness we said good-bye to an awesome horse, 'Gatsby,' who owned Jacquie Cowan. He was a Tennessee Walking Horse and a certified Search and Rescue team member. Gatsby left this world to run in the Greener Pastures over the Rainbow Bridge.

Gatsby presented with a rather quick onset of colic (or displaced bowel, or some such belly problem).

They were hosting a display at Little Bennett for the Maryland Horse Council, CPWH, TROT-SAR when he started not feeling right. After calling in a vet to the park, Jacquie bundled him up and drove him to Leesburg, Marion duPont Scott Equine Center, where further tests indicated a need for surgical intervention, or . . . well, you know.

He excelled in everything he did and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
