Advice needed please - awful situation - strangles

The decision then was made for you. I am so very sorry. And angry at the charity who have let you down. Kind thoughts and hope in time you can enjoy your happy memories.
 
I have followed this thread but not posted.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I was holding out all hope the little mare would pull through, but you did the right thing not to prolong her suffering or his.

You have been a responsible and caring owner. I hope the charity learns a lesson from this.

My thoughts are with you.
 
So very sorry to hear this news - we can all understand your devastation, and I am sure we are all thinking of you.

Thank you all for all your kind words. The pony developed pneumonia and was pts yesterday. Because he could not live alone my lovely boy was pts also. I am in pieces.

Its clear from your posts you are a responsible horse owner and loved your horses very much and only wanted the best for them.
Truly sorry for your loss. x

Antigone, I am so so sorry. What has happened to you is nothing short of cruel. You sound like such a caring, dedicated owner who really tried your heart out for your horses. I hope that you can take some comfort in knowing that you have done your best by both of them.

I hope there is someone you can be with.

l've just read your post, it's heartbreaking that after all you have been through & tried to do for your horses that you have lost them. Time will heal it's hard enough dealing with one horse being pts but two l cannot imagine. At least you have thought about their welfare which many people don't due to emotions getting in the way not wanting to let go.
Your pain will be raw at the moment but once it eases l think like a couple of people have already said something must be raised with the charity who you got the pony from to prevent this happening again to someone else. Hugs & more hugs xx
 
Thinking of you Antigone, I am so sorry you found yourself in this situation and dealing with this outcome. I hope you have some good support around you at the moment xx


As for the charity I would be raining brimstone down on them, how dare they try and wash their hands of it all after giving you a pony with strangles, leaving you thousands out of pocket and without your own beloved cob. I know you probably won't have the energy at the moment but when/if you do I would be seeking legal advice. Once again my heart goes out to you xx
 
I'm so dreadfully sorry. You poor thing. What a tragic series of events.
Thinking of you in this awful time. You did the right thing for your boy, and I'm so sorry about the poor little mare.

Huge hugs, and lots of strength to you. x
 
Oh my goodness. Somehow I have only just found this thread. Have been reading with great anxiety and Antigone, your update today has me in tears. I cannot imagine how you are feeling. I am so, so sorry for you and your lovely boy. x x
