Not mine but one from work.
It was my first experience of the hunt putting a horse down really.
My first two went by injection and I held them. The third I didn't want to inject as he's previously fought sedation but I wasn't there. My dad handed him over and the hunt brought a person to hold him.
I was interested to go as it's a horse I really liked but unlike my own wasn't emotionally attached to.
I have to say, to anyone facing this the horse knew absolutely nothing and felt nothing. He walked off the lorry with his ears pricked and was gone within 10 seconds, literally.
Very professional people and I have to say having now seen both I won't have a decision to make next time- it will be easy, the hunt.
