I read this earlier, and as hubs and I were out with Shy and the dog this afternoon, I was looking at all pheasant feeders and was thinking of your poor lad, sending vibes up to him. My lads stops at all of them knowing there's food in them. I have no idea how - smell i guess. Shy once got out into the feed shed where there was a bag of unsoaked beet, and the only thing that stopped him getting to it was sheer luck. I've never used the stuff since.

I am so very sorry, a terrible accident. (((((((((((((((HUGE HUGS)))))))))))))))). sm x

I'm so,so sorry to read this, it's utterly tragic :-(

Why do they do these things? One of our mares managed to get into the feed room this evening, luckily i spotted her from across the field & she had only a couple of minutes stuffing high fibre nuts before i turfed her out. They really do have very little common sense.

He was a stunning boy & as other's have said, at least you were there with him & able to end his suffering.

Big hugs to you.

I never realised just how dangerous those little plastic barrels are and we have loads of them!

A sad, sad waste of such a beautiful boy. My heart goes out to you.

So sorry to hear this, hoping you have something in that hot choc to stiffen it up a bit :(

Such a freak accident, horses do the silliest things (on of ours got into a sack of concrete powder) and at least you know you were about to lessen his suffering although I bet that not much of a condolence ATM :(

Thank you all so so much. I can't believe how many of you have written kind words for him, it means a lot - thank you.

It was typical of him to do something like eat himself to death. He was the most wonderful boy. Nothing phased him - I've never known such an un-spookable horse in my life! I'm a bit too tearful to write very much about him now, but I will put some photos up because he really was one of the most beautiful horses I've ever seen. He had South America on his right shoulder...
