To all my horsey ( and non horsey ) friends.
Last week on Monday, I lost my beautiful Welsh sec D mare. She was 22 years old, and suffering for several weeks with worsening laminitis and Cushings disease.
I made the heartbreaking decision to have her PTS, after she deteriorated fast over the weekend, and it looked like she was going to loose a hoof.
So, this is to Lucy ( aka Beaky ) - to me, you were the best horse in the world. The kindest, most beautiful, perfect for me in every way, and I will always remember you. Thank you for all the good times together, for all the rides we had, and for all the times I came to the field in tears, and left with a smile. I am missing you.

So sorry to hear this Razee.
It's always the hardest decision to put an animal to sleep, but you made the right decision for Lucy! |

It is the worst and most difficult decision you ever have to make, but it is also one of the most loving.
Thoughts are with you. |

Wheels has put it perfectly Razee. I can't begin to imagine how you're feeling but, having ridden many years ago until my health stopped me, I do know the bond between horse and rider. So much more than non-horsey people can understand.
She was blessed to have you as her partner, as were you.
