I said goodbye to Pocomoonskyeyes...aka Sky today
-
This has been a very hard day for me. I rehomed my 18 year old paint gelding today because he had heaves. I wasnt able to get it under control. He went to people that only live a short distance from me.
They have another horse that has heaves but since he has been running on pasture he hasnt had a flare up. So hoping that will happen for my Sky.
I am heartbroken though just the same. I know I did right with the decision. My hubby and I were talking of having him put down but he wanted to give Sky a final chance. He still has a good life ahead of him. I can go see him anytime I want. Planning on doing that this weekend. -
Hugs.
I hope he does really well at his new home, and you get to see him often.45120

Thanks Seaswell. If they decide they dont want him anymore we have a contract stating that he comes home to us. I have been fighting heaves with him for the past 3 years. This year none of my meds I got from the vet was working this time. I hated it but I also didnt feel right about putting him down either.

I'm honestly not even sure what heaves are, as I haven't had much opportunity to be around live horses in the last 20 years. But it sounds uncomfortable in a big way.
I can relate to wanting the best for our babies though. My husky is pushing 15 and suffering old man pains. I hope we get another year. It's good you have the option to try again if he doesn't work out in his new home.45120
