I’m so sorry, **peedin**. I have had to put a horse down, too. It’s so very hard. Bob sounds like a wonderful horse!

I’m so sorry for your loss.  
I love big dogs. I’m tired of outliving all my babies. Animals bring out the best in humanity. We need them longer,not shorter. My girl is getting old, I hope she is the last doggie I have to put down. Next time they can  
just put me down instead
