I understand there is a time for everything, but I am not ready. I hate this aspect of horse ownership.
Do you know why I call her Boo? Because I don't even KNOW what her name is. The people who dropped her off at my place left her when I was not there. No feeding plan. No background of any kind. Just a horse with really long feet who had obviously been through a lot in her lifetime. I don't even know how old she is. The vet estimates around 28-29. And the sweetest dispositioned horse I have ever known.
My precious Boo horse is having problems that can no longer be solved. It is time. This horse that someone abandoned at my place? They abandoned her because THEY did not want to make the decision I have to now make. But I cannot let her continue in pain. She has stopped eating normally and is losing weight. She cannot walk without pain. I know it is time.......everything in my horse experience tells me I am right.
Someone please explain that to my heart.
I love you Boo.
