Maybe it helps to know that something good came out of this tragedy for us: our mare, an American Quarter horse (this Dutch girl knows good horses ;) ), was my geldings love-of-his-life. They shared a stable, did everything together, so when he died, Pride got sad. Because we bred her before, we...

Sounds like we all lost some very special horses. I'd like to think my horse is with my little brother now. I told him to look for my baby brother, just before he died with his head in my lap. One of our dogs died a year after my horse. It gave me some comfort to know my horse was already...

I know exactly what you've been through Kim. I even have my geldings name tattooed on my whrist. When the vets diagnosed the twisted gut, they told me the chances he would survive just the anaesthesia were 15%. The chances he would survive the actual surgery were even smaller. It was...

Thank you! It is indeed. I think almost every horse can make you feel better if you take the time to bond.

Some people think it's weird, but this Dutch girl owns American horses. We have 3 mares, a 15-years old sorrel quarter horse mare Pride (granddaughter of Kid Clu, great-granddaughter of Coosa, a real halter girl) and her American Paint daughters Ayla (she's 7, chestnut tobiano) and Faith (4...
