Sad day tomorrow :-(

Very brave and a very kind thing to do, all she has known is love, and you did the right thing by her (((BIG HUG)))) x
 
So it's done. My girl left me at 11.30 this morning with the sun on her back and her nose in a feed. I have been mostly in tears today .. Lots of firsts without her. I returned to the yard tonight to do Dolly my other girl and it seemed strangely peaceful. I've had so much love and support it has kept me going. My lovely Jess is now at peace with her Arab tail flying as she gallops through the sky. The sadness will pass and I will always have a special place in my heart just for her xxx
 
Was thinking about you today. She was lucky to have such a caring owner that did the best by her and thats what its about. It will take time and get easier but they are so sorely missed arent they?Truly a best friend. We are honoured to have had them in our lives and she will be with others, free forever, no more problems. RIP JessX.
 
Jess was lucky to have such a caring and considerate owner who was selfless enough to put her welfare first. My dad is a vet, and has always said that the best thing to do in return for all those years of friendship you have had, is to let them go with dignity when the time comes, and not let them deteriorate until you can barely recognise the animal in front of you.

Both of mine ended their days with me. I am glad- I did not have to worry that someone wasn't strong enough to make the right decision for them. You should be proud of yourself for thinking only of Jess. It's a very difficult time, but I hope soon you will be able to look back at all the memories of your time together and be able to smile.
 
Lots of hugs for you! I know exactly how you feel :( keep smiling and just think Jess is up there now pain free and running wild!! Xx
 
I am so sorry for your loss. Such a difficult decision to make, but you have her best interest at heart. The alternative is much worse, last thing you want is to watch her die in the field. she'll know you are looking out for you, and she'll look down on you forever more. She'll be your star in the sky. xx
 
So sorry for you but you loved her enough to not let her suffer ,it is you hurting now know the feeling I hurt so much when I lost Molly but couldn't let her suffer I hurt not her xxx
 
I made the decision with my old girl last year because I didn't want her to have to endure another winter. Looking at the weather we've had for the last month or so, I most definitely made the right decision at the right time. I'd watched her deteriorating steadily and although it was the saddest day of my life, I can honestly say I was relieved afterwards because I knew it wasn't going to get even worse for her any more. She went calmly, painlessly and with dignity - exactly how I wanted it to be for her.
