So sorry, RIP Tessy. A legend in the BOGOF stakes and an HHO horse with a mention on the Chris Evans Breakfast Show. I still remember that vividly as we all waited for Dolly to put in an appearance.
I decided to go to work today, my wonderful friend held her for the vet. I wouldn't have been able to keep myself together and didn't want to upset Tessy .
Doesn't quite feel real yet, I have a feeling it will hit me like a tonne of bricks tonight, when she's not in the field waiting for me , like half of my brain is telling me.
I'm so sorry to read this, she was a beautiful horse loved by more people than you can know. And she was lucky enough to fall on her feet when she came to you.
I don't think it will feel real for a long time, you just have to keep going and know it will get easier x
I am rarely here these days but saw the news on Facebook and had to come to add my condolences.
The Tessy Bear bogoff thread was unforgettable, we all followed your and your lovely mare's story, logging in night and day just for news. As everyone else has said, you gave her a wonderful life and you have made the bravest and kindest decision for her at the end.
Rest in peace, beautiful Tessy, and virtual hugs for you Abbie. Xxx
So sad to hear of this news. Tessy, the legend of HHO. She'll never be forgotten. Thank you for being a wonderful owner, and putting her needs first. The hardest thing saying goodbye, but be proud of the memories you have. God bless Tessybear. Much love and hugs to you too. xxx
I am so sorry for your loss. Please take care of yourself, you have done the very best for her during her time with you. Thank you for sharing your journey with us - the good times and the bad. Rest easy Tessy. xxxxxx
Very best wishes to you. She was loved and cared for by the best owner possible and you ensured her safety and welfare to the very sad end. Take pride in yourself, she was proud to have you in her life and she wanted for nothing with you at her side.
