Death

Snow White was euthanized July 2, 2009, following colic surgery. She was found to be suffering a twisted intestine, and approximately 50 feet of damaged intestine was discovered. She was given a 5-10% chance of survival, but the damage was too great, and the owners conferred with the veterinarians and made the difficult decision to put her down.
