Sad News About My Horse

Sorry I haven’t written anything for some time but my horse had to be put down in late February after developing pneumonia and not responding to treatment. This was very sudden and a sad day for our family and friends who have enjoyed looking after him for many years. I bought him as a foal and he would have been 22 in a few weeks time. He was the kindest and sweetest horse that I have ever looked after. Even now, it is very difficult for me to write about this and I have not felt like reading about horses or writing for the website in recent weeks. I will be trying to get back to normal with the website postings soon but expect it may take a while.

    It is tough to deal with a loss like that. I am sorry to hear we almost died when we had to put down our belgian that we loved for years. What helped us get through was remembering the good times that we shared and all the great things our friend taught us about life.

    I am sure you and your horse shared and amazing 22 years together and that is to be celebrated. Focus on that and knowing you did everything to provide him a loved and full life.

About Me And My Horse

I sat on my first pony before I could walk, had my own pony (Twinkle) by the time I was 6 and have owned at least one pony or horse ever since. I started to compete when I was still at primary school and won my first horse competition rosette in show jumping at a local gymkhana aged 10.
