i am no longer a horse owner.

Some friends of my mums came to view Indy today and decided to take her. Took a huge loss but know she has a home for life and they will be able to bring out her potential.

They led her home (only live about 10 mins away from my yard) through the main road etc and she was fantastic.

Couldnt watch her go however. Before she left i gave her a hug and a kiss and she licked me with her lips like she does. Could feel the tears coming so walked away and stood at the car while she left. Forgot though that i could see her reflection through the mirror. Tears were just streaming down my face - been doing it on and off all day. Just feel like a part of me has been ripped away. She was the only thing I walked out of my last relationship with and i feel that ive failed her with my lack of confidence.

have only just been able to have something to eat. I know its a bit of a selfish post but i just really need some hugs atm from people who know what im on about, if you know what i mean
 
I know how you feel..I watched someone take my horse away last year and although it was relief because I couldnt handle her..it was sadness that I didnt want her to go.
(((Hugs)))
 
poor you, it sounds like you are having to let go of the relationship as well as the horse which must be awful. just think of how much happier you both will be - she will get the experiance she needs and can you have some lessons or ride a friends reliable horse to get back your confidence and keep a hand in? you will be having fun so quickly that way. its hard but you WILL feel better soon, you will also feel happy that shes happy too.
 
You have my sympathy too. I had to sell a horse that was dangerous. I had him professionally re-schooled but they told me that he had too many problems. I still felt sad when he went though and I hope that he is ok. I hope that things look up for you again soon x
 
You have my sympathy too - it is a heartbreaking decision to have to make. You did it for the best reasons and hopefully he will have a fantastic life ahead - you too.
 
((((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Aww I know how you feel hun,Maybe when you feel ready, go and see her settled into her new home, that should make you feel better seeing her happy and content.

So sorry, but please try not to feel that you've failed her. It sounds like you've found her a lovely home with people who will love her. It is sad for you but sometimes things just aren't to be.
