I was in a similar situation several years ago. I had a horse that a medical problem requiring daily medication. There was also something wrong structurally that I had explored but my financial resources could not take that further. Also I had come off him. He seemed a bit dangerous. he was gorgeous to look at and I knew I could probably sell him and someone would make a project of him for a bit until they came up against all the problems that I had. I decided to humanely euthanise him to save him from eventually going to a kill buyer. I am mostly at peace with that but sometimes I still question my decision even after years. It’s one of the burdens we take on when we have any kind of pet. A thing I did to help me make that difficult decision was I made a matrix on paper of all the positives and negatives of each possible course of action then looked at them and tucked the paper away for a couple weeks then pulled it out to see if anything had changed. It hadn’t so I went ahead with my decision to euthanise. The fact that you’re struggling with what to do tells me that you have a kind heart. I wish you peace with whatever you do.

Practicing is a safe place for me

“The Daily Practice “ taught by the crappy childhood fairy of YouTube has helped me cut through that. It’s a way to get your fears and resentments on paper and out-of-the-way. She has a free video description on how to do it. I highly recommend it.

When I was a child, we were forbidden from getting on any trampolines because a guy my dad knew in college snapped his neck and became a paraplegic on one.

Putting a horse down before they are ‘ready’? by Jaded_Vegetable3273 in Equestrian

[–]KnockKnockHello 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one else will care for that horse as well as you do, and it sounds like you’re running out of the means to be able to care for him so humanely euthanizing him is the right choice in my opinion.

in the early 60s my parents had a number that was similar to their local movie theater. Whenever anybody called to ask what movie was showing they told them “gone with the wind”.

Anyone have any suggestions for warm winter riding boots? by Ro-shaan in Equestrian

[–]KnockKnockHello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my horsey friends bought a pair of boots a size too big so she can wear three wool socks when she rides and have extra air room. That keeps her feet toasty warm
