As a kid we had horses, one of whom was murdered just after we found out she was going to have a baby. She was a beautiful appaloosa. Some kid got pissed at my dad for not selling him liquor, so he stabbed her through the heart. I grew up with them and they were always high spirited and one thought he was a dog. He'd knock my dad down and lick his face. It was hilarious. I say all that to let you know I understand your sadness and I'm so sorry you are going to lose your friend, because that is what they become so quickly, so fiercely.
Hugs to you too. I wonder what the equivalent to the Rainbow Bridge is for Horses? An emerald green pasture and deep blue pond? He's got good company up there waiting on him.
