Quick question as the deed being done tomorrow morning (late night worries, I guess).
Horse being PTS is best friends with another horse on yard. Everyone recommending I allow horse time to sniff body etc. and I agree.
Just not sure how to manage it? Do I lead horse to body and allow time still attached to lead rope? Does it need to be let loose? How much time? I will obviously try to be guided by horse but I'm not sure whether I should be close by or distant and a vague expectation of time would be good.
Hunt doing everything so won't have hours (though he suggested without prompting that she has time to see).
Any experiences appreciated, first time doing this as previous horse was not done on our home yard.
Thanks in advance.
