Today I had to make the decision to send you to horse heaven. Your girlfriend will look after you up there.
Thank you for giving me the last 8 years of your life. I'm sorry I was an emotional wreck for a good bit of that.
Thank you for looking after the babies, keeping them in check and showing them the ropes.
Thank you for proving the doubters wrong and showing everyone you were a saint.
Thank you for forgiving my mistakes.
I'm sorry you went through so many homes before you found me.
I'm sorry someone beat you up.
I'm sorry they scared you.
I'm sorry that they couldn't see the sweet gentleman you were.
Most of all, I'm sorry we couldn't stop the pain.
You'll always be my dude xxx
 
Don't cry for the horses
That life has set free
A million wild horses
Forever to be

Don't cry for the horses
Now in God's hands
As they dance and they prance
To a heavenly band

They were ours as a gift
But never to keep
As they close their eyes
Forever to sleep


(((((HUGS)))))
 
What a moving tribute.

But rather than being sorry, I think you should take comfort from all the love you gave him and the way in which he touched your life. He was obviously a very special gentleman.

So sorry for your loss. Hugsx
 
I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying, you found it hard to sleep.

I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea, you were thinking of the many times your hands reached down to me.

I was with you at the shops today, your arms were getting sore. I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.

I was with you at my grave today, you tend it with such care. I want to reassure you, that I'm not lying there.

I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key. I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "it's me."

You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.

It's possible for me to be so near you every day.
To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."

You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew ... in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.

The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning
and say "goodnight, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.

I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see. Be patient, live your journey out ... then come home to be with me.

I know horses obviously don't have paws, but it's a beautiful poem.
I'm so sorry for your loss xxx
 
Love and hugs.

This is the most hardest thing about having an animal but its also the most important thing to know that when the time comes you will know when to call it a day.

i lost my little boy (19 month old) yesterday, i know exactly what you are going through, im in a harder place than i have every been in my life, it makes you feel so responsable, but we have to remember that we arent responsable for it. he helped end the pain and we help end the suffering. we have to have our share of suffer now. if you need to talk to someone you can always pm me, its helped me to talk to people (even though it only happened last night)

so sorry for your loss darling, chin up he will be happy now. xxx
 
So sorry for your lost, thinking of you at this horrid time. Take comfort in the fact you gave him the life he deserved and the courage to see it through to the end x
