I have my old jumping mare thats been retired with us for 10 years, Shes been lame for 8 years but happy lolling around in her field, comes in at night etc. She really hasn't come through the summer well. After the hard winter of 2012 we thought that was it as she had dropped off so much but through summer and last winter which was so mild she really picked up. Well this summer she has really dropped off and her lameness is more apparent plus she had sinusitis a couple of years ago and thats flared up again so we decided shes had enough.
Never had to do this before even though i've had horses for 30 years, i must admit i was a blubbering wreck on the phone to the poor vets receptionist. We have a vet coming out next week. Just feel awful.......my poor little friend Winnie won't be here anymore and its going to be so strange without her here. We've had our yard seven years so shes always been there.
