New Herd Member after a sad goodbye

[JoannaC]

Lost my 25year old suddenly at the end of October, I'm surprisingly at peace with it as he was great age and lived the life of riley the last few years. He still moved well and was a good weight so it came as a shock despite his age but he coliced in the night and needed operating so wasn't going to put him through that at his age. Pic taken in the Summer.




On a happier note I now have a mini version in Blue Cross Pocoyo who joined the girls this week and has settled in nicely. Such a sweet polite little pony with a hint of cheekiness. Got to love a Section A

Your boy didn't look his age, lovely looking horse. New welsh is a real cutie.

I love a Section A, myself! Your 25 yr old looked very well for his age. He obviously lived a fabulous life with you but I am sorry for your loss.

 

[J&S]

The horse you sadly lost looked wonderful.

So sorry for your loss x I think Arabs always look younger than they really are and you would never know he was 25.

I love section A's just like mini Arabs

Do you have a matching grey herd there? Taking on a rescue pony is lovely.

Your old boy was a stunner ❤

Ha ha I was adamant not to get another grey the last two but I realise I am doomed to only own greys!

Your 25 year old looked amazing for his age. What a credit to you! Love your new Section A - adorable!

What a testament to your love and care your old boy was and his mini me is lovely. X

Your lad was stunning. The mini will keep you busy - every section A I've known has been a little toad - but in a lovely way .

I'm sorry for the loss of your gorgeous old boy.

Love the little Welsh. I have a little mare cut by the same cookie cutter! Best little pony.

you do love your greys don't you . like others your 25 year does not look it. I lost 2 to colic., I know how tragic it is. I too love a welsh A and have a cheeky but stroppy welsh A myself.
