Please help, I don't know where else to ask.
I have a beloved 24 year old who is thin. V thin. Has melanomas. Doesn't seem in pain and bloods clear and no cushings but I can't get any weight on him. Vet feels there are internal issues and his heart beat is erratic. I've tried for 6 months now and he's too thin for winter. He seems fed up now the weather is turning.
I also have a 36 year old. He's a good weight but his eyesight is failing. They've been best friends for 15 years.
I also have a younger mare as companion who has bad knees.
I haven't ridden for ten years.. They cost me a lot of money and it's hard with working full time and with children.
I feel at the end of my tether. I could put mare on full livery but only her.
I'm certain I'm having the grey PTS but swinging between it being too soon for the oldie and the relief of having a break from this huge commitment (sorry).
I really think gun at the same time would be the only acceptable option.
Please does anyone have any experience of doing this "early" and having 2 PTS together?
Did you feel guilty after? Relieved?
