eastcoaster Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Sometimes they give their all to fight their illness , had 2sisters that were a couple of days away from culling but gave them chance , one was 2nd sect Maidstone her sister was my best racer so not all are done but use your own judgement .
