My youngest, she is 25 now, has horses and cross Connemara Pony's and had to get one put to sleep, she waited and waited but it was against all odds. The vet said there was no hope of recovery

I am so sorry to hear.

At least I am sure he was loved. People who does not care just turn them to burguers at the first sign of trouble. That is one of the reasons why I have trouble getting certain vet supplies for Diana here: they don't make boots or therapeuthic horseshoes her size because draft horses here get sent to the gutter the moment they get the slightiest hoof issue.

She has shoes from each of her horses, all mounted on a nice frame. That is sad to hear about draft horses, they tend to be used as riding centre horses here as they are steady and unflapable

Do you mean, for actual riding? I love Diana to bits but I don't think you could easily sit on her. Her back is too wide. I hug her so often, when I reach for her navel I have some trouble embracing her and reaching her back. By the way that leaves me exposed to her vicious horse attack, which consists on playfully nibbling my ass.
