Thankyou HHOers

[Gleeful Imp]

I would like to give you all my heart felt thanks for all your kind words over saying goodnight to my two angels. Your lovely posts and PMs not only helped get me through the night but also helped me to be strong enough for today.

Today was very difficult, but the vet was great, so sympathetic, with all the time in the world. They both knew that their Mum was there as they slipped quietly away, I cradled their heads in my arms and told them I loved them. My YO was wonderful, sharing the tears, and cuddling a heavily sedated Tom whilst I said goodbye to Whisper.

This morning told me it was the right thing to do, she didn't even want to walk across the field. They had the biggest breakfast ever and a lovely brush. They will be forever with me.

Tomorrow will be hard, as the first day without them. But I will hug George close and remember them with joy.

Im so glad it went as well as it could. They arent in pain anymore and you are the bravest and least selfish owner for doing that for them.
All my love and hugs xx

All my sympathy for you. Saying goodbye to any pet is difficult, but horses are always especially so. Reading your post has made me well up, thinking of my old boy who was PTS August 2010 because he was finally old in mind and body- it's the ultimate thank you for a horse who has given so much to you I think.

So many hugs for the next few weeks. They'll always be with you, and you're kindness and love are the last things they'll know.

I am so sorry, but so glad it all went well for them. They were two very beautiful horses.

Best wishes.xx

I really feel for you, but glad it went well, and peacefully. I'm still raw from losing my old lad. They are such wonderful animals, and losing them is awful. You must take heart in that you did the last final act of love you can do for them. They will always be with you.
Love and hugs. You are in my thoughts x

What a way to go, in the arms of their ''mum'' , surrounded by love and you being the last thing they saw and heard, what more could any of us wish for. Today was the price you paid for all the love and fun that have been had over the years, to have to say goodbye. It is also the day you can look back on and be proud of, that you did the VERY best for them until they went and you made sure they left in a way that was stressfree, painfree and peaceful. Well done on being such a caring and brave owner, harder than alot think and to be admired. Lucky Tom and Whisper for having you, may they be galloping round in the big fields in the sky now, R.I.P. x

After only losing my old girl 10 days ago, I know what you are going through. To say goodbye to two best friends is incredably brave of you, but I am sure like me, you know it was the kindest thing.
I hope, that amoung the many horses and ponies up there, there will be Juno making new friends in the shape of Tom and Whisper, and taking them for a good whizz about before finding the best grass any horse can ever wish for.
May they all rest in peace, pain free and happy.

(welling up big time now!!)


Also, have to note, that in this situation particually, vets, huntsmen and staff really do deserve gold medals. They do a fantastic job, dealing with the horrid side, but also so kind to animal and connections. True credit to them too.
