After a heart breaking morning, from finding Trixie with colic, to vet visits, painkillers and finally a decision.

She was put to sleep in familiar surroundings with familiar people and all the love in the world.

After informing the vet we had been told she was about 35 - 40, he said "40 +"... so she was a very old lady.

Can't type much now, i'm devastated beyond words. She was my best friend, my first pony, my rock for 10 wonderful years and life without her is going to be so hard.

I love her with all my heart and I hope that this, the hardest decision I have ever made, was the right one.


Special thanks must go to Brighteyes and Joya who were there to read my babbling texts and leave me supporting voicemails and texts. Thank you so much.

RIP my wonderful Trixie.

Oh god, Im so sorry Kirsty. She was a wonderful pony and you will always have memories of her for the rest of your life. I dont know anyone who does more for their ponies than you do, and she will thank you for making the right decision.
(((((hugs))))
 
Love and hugs to you Boodle. Hope this will help you and mum come to terms with the loss of Trixie ...


"I'll lend you for a little while, my Grandest Foal." God said,
"For you to love while he's alive, and mourn for when he's dead.
It may be one, or twenty years.
Or days or months, you see.
But will you 'till I take him back,
take care of him for me?
He'll bring you charms to gladden you,
and should his stay be brief,
You'll have those treasured memories
as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay,
since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught on earth
I want this foal to learn.
I've looked the whole world over
in my search for teachers true
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes,
with trust I've selected you.
Now, will you give him all your love,
nor think the labour vain,
Nor hate me when I come
to take him home again?
I know you'll give him tenderness,
and love will bloom each day,
And for the happiness you've known,
you will forever grateful stay.
But should I come and call for him
much sooner than you planned,
You'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
and maybe understand."
 
So sorry for you. You have made the right decision and she was the lucky one to have you as an owner for all these years. RIP Trixie, and sending you all the hugs I can muster.
 
That's heartbreaking, but you did the right thing. She was a dear little pony and I loved seeing her pictures. She took the decision out of your hands and she went in the best way possible.

RIP Trixie x
 
Oh God you must be absolutely gutted - its brought a tear to my eye reading it.

But what a wonderful life Trixie had with you, she couldn't possibly have been loved any more. I am glad she had the chance to see the summer out.

Huge Hugs to you.
 
I hate saying im sorry in these circumstances so instead will say congratulations on having had the pleasure of such a gorgeous pony, in the pictures you have posted you can clearly see what a special old lady she was, Run free gorgeous girl.
Big hugs boodle and treasure all fantastic times you and trixie had together. xx
 
I've been dreading this post.

I'm so so sorry for you loss, but please do be assured you made the right and most selfless decision for your wonderful pony.

Over the years I have loved reading posts about Trixie (as well as the rest of your gang), and one in particular sticks in my mind, when (this summer?) there was a lovely photo story of her having a wonderful bath and spruce up! She did look super super cute.

So massive hugs to you Boodle at this very sad time,

RIP dear old Trixie pony xxx
 
Oh, so sorry for your loss. Im sure you made the right decision.

We had our old boy pts earlier in the year and ive got some hair of his in a silver heart shaped locket. I wear it and it gives me confidence knowing he's with me.

Shes so pretty.

RIP
