It's time Grama

This last summer I had to do what was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. That was to decide to put down my senior gelding.
My Grandson's horse.

MR.BUDDY LOVE

RIP Mr. Buddy Love

Seizures 3 within hours of each other, led to the immediate prognosis - He was deemed unsafe to be around the children.
His age was nearing 30, his health had been good until the seizures. He lost weight rapidly and became depressed as did I.

It's taken a while for all of us to recover. I had four horses, adopted 2 out on a Thursday and by Monday, Buddy was at his worst. Gone the following Saturday.

StarBright went from the leader of a herd accompanied by Buddy her long time companion of over 15 years. To being the only horse standing next to me. I went from chores and horses care and expense to suddenly having time for the one horse and my grandchildren.... Hmmm.

My Grandson has mourned in his own way. He took it hardest of all. As one would expect an 8 year old to feel about his horse.

We have a horse trailer now and trail rides in the future. He was hanging out with me helping clean up the trailer and .......

He's informed me

It's time Grama, I need a new horse so we can go riding together.

So here's the AD.

WANTED a small horse / large pony. 13-14 hands works best. Older, prefer manners, ridable. Looking for the horse that you want to have a new good home and a boy to love (as well as many other children). I can't do wild rescues anymore due to back injuries. My grandson will be the trainer. Please call or text if you think you have his next horse. We're lifer's so this is a forever home. Until it's time to pass over .
