    To put down or not? head and heart fighting!

    Opinions

    Beacuse the even mention of PTS on a healthy horse upsets me - I know horses cant be pets but if I took on a horse on and for some reason it couldnt do what I had planned for it - well ok - i cant do what I had set out for. I dont expect anyone to agree

    What would you do?

    Sorry my mistake - go put him to sleep then - he's only 9 - you need something to ride - so consentrate on that!

    What would you do?

    I would love to be able to give you advice but I am just a pleasure rider (never competed but worked as a groom for 5 yrs at good competition yards) I don't agree with putting horses down though because they can't compete anymore - although this is not the case for you? Could you re-home him...
