l don't know if it was born dead or alive was a colt or filly dog chewed it pretty good for that to tell...much as l loved my dog who's been here almost 5 years and raised around the mares and smart enough to know never to get in with a stallion from day one...sad to say she's been sent to doggy heaven. Not sure if that was the right thing to do l really didn't want to but l don't think l would have ever felt l could trust her around the minis knowing what she did to this poor foal..
