Elk Hunting
#4
He was a 270 lb 40 inch tall Oberhasli. He developed painful front knees. Vet said he had severe arthritis. While crawling on his knees for a month he broke a back pastern and only had 1 good leg to stand on. He was only 7 years old. 
Now I have his other herd mates on a joint supplement in hopes of getting some longevity out of them. 
I don't think the Oberhali is suppose to be that big. Despite have a large heavy bone structure the joints quit early. 
Thanks for asking. He was easy going and hard working.
