    The final decision - what do do after all is done?

    Sorry for your loss, there always seems to be an idiot or two who think they know what is best for your horse. I had this a couple of months ago when I had my mare PTS. It's hard enough having to make that decision without someone being horrid about it.

    I'm sure this has been asked before... Shavings!

    Hunters for us, have tried lots of others but always go back to hunters as they last longer and work out more cost efficient. tried wood pellets and hated them. A few people on our yard love them but their rugs are disgusting.

    Another needless case of neglect!

    if your horses were on loan would you not send them back to their owners rather than let them starve to death? She could have asked for help but didn't. My sympathies are with the owners of the horses waiting to find out if their horses are alive or not.

    Reprimanding

    Voice works best for mine. you can smack her and she is like a defiant child if she could speak she would definitely say "yeah and, is that the best you can do" but then she is a very opinionated Arab mare.
