I had to put down my 28 year old mare today. I bought her when she was a 5 year old. So she has been part of the family for 23 years. She coliced real bad and I couldn't let her suffer anymore.
I hate to loose her. She packed alot of elk for me and was one great horse.
I just thank God for allowing me to share 23 years of my life with her. _________________ If your eyelashes don't fall off just from looking at your broadheads, they ain't sharp enough!

That is bad,I have three buried on the place here and every one of them I had 25+ years. Kinda get attached to them.
Right now is bad time for colic and founder with new rich grass coming on loaded with sugars. _________________ If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and sawbucks.

My condolences. It's never easy losing a critter that has been part of your family for 20 + years. _________________ Sometimes when you think the deck is totally stacked against you and that elk hunting is the stupidest activity on earth, remember that there are thousands of people out there who would love to be miserable like you right now...
