I'm so sorry for your loss

These special animals just get under our skin and into our hearts and it's so hard when we have to say goodbye.

I'm sorry to hear your MIL is so sick, too. Wow, you both must be overwhelmed.

I have had to help many over the bridge and know they will meet me there when my time comes.


Run and buck Laddie. Roll like a little foal till you are covered in grass stains. Bury your nose nostril deep in clear cool streams, drink deep. You are loved and missed.

Thanks you ALL soooo much. Its been very hard to have to go thru with this, but I know it was for the best. It hurt me more to see him in pain then to put him down. I know he is at peace now, no more pain or suffering. When I talked to Greg at work and told him, he cryed pretty hard. He Thanked me for having to do this for him, and I told him that, that is what love is all about, to help eachother thru good and bad. He would have done it for me if need be. I just wish we didnt have to work and we could have been here together with/for eachother. This horse was his big "baby". He was a real gentle horse, would let any kid ride him and never hurt a soul. So he will be missed for sure. Every family gathering we had, Laddie was the horse that all the kids wanted and got to ride. The kids would give him treats and brush him before and after riding him. We have lots of pics of him from the family gatherings, so we will have them to keep him in out hearts.

I saved some of his mane and tail, where might I find someone to make me something from that?



Rest in Peace ol boy, we will miss you......................

Ed - great big hug. You are a good man, and you were there when it counted. You two keep taking such good care of eachother. Please give Greg a hug from me as well.

I used this company http://twistedtails.com to have a bracelet made from my Morgan's tail...and it is beautiful. They have some nice things there.
Otherwise, that dream-weaver mentioned on page one of this thread looked really nice, too.

When it's done, we'd all love to see the beautiful momento if you guys wanted to share it.

I am so, so sorry to hear about your loss. Laddie was very fortunate to have you and your Partner in his life. I'm sure he knew he was very well loved.
Sending positive thoughts for your Mother-in-law.
