RIP Laddie----Very sad-----Going to have to put a horse down

[Rafter 7 Paint Horses]

I don't know if there are any artists who make things with horse hair in your area, but I found a website for making a simple dreamcatcher that you can do yourself.

I do know that some artists use horse hair incorporated into fine pottery. That might also be an option for you. You might be able to contact your city for artists in the area.

I am so sorry about Laddie.

Jean is right, I remember seeing a website about horsehair pottery once. I did some searching and found it;

Ed so sorry for your loss. Words certainly can do nothing to convey how we feel at times like this, been there.

Folks I have cleaned this thread up. In future when you see a post with such blatant violation of almost every rule we have please use the report button on your lower right, not the reply or the quote button.

Thanks.

Going by her title and previous posts I thought you all knew about it and she was already banned.. Sorry!

Ed & Greg, I know how you both must feel. Thanks for the updates along the way. As I said before, I HATE founder. Just remember Laddie the way he was, if that helps at all. I still miss my Sunny after all these years.

So sorry, hugs to both of you. It is never easy to lose a friend, especially when you have to make that decision. You did all you could and helped end his suffering, that's a true friend. I wish I could make it easier for you both, but alas I'm just a human.

I hope your feeling better knowing that you did the right thing.

Oh Ed, I don't even know what to say

I'm sitting here in disbelief. I thought for sure Laddie was going to pull through. It's so hard to have to make a decision like putting our animals down. I'm right there with you

We had to put our very first goat down last week. It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do.

Give yourself and Greg a big ole

from me. So sorry to hear about you MIL

We've lost many family members to cancer

So sorry for your loss.

I have older horses and I know the day will come when I have to make those difficult decisions. I t will be so hard. Hugs to you both.
