      Hi Hec1910, i think you might be asking just me that one. He was 19 and I’d had him for 15 years. That’s quite old for a horse but they can live to their 30s – he didn’t because he had a condition that meant his bones were breaking down in a few places so once he started to feel pain i put him down so he wouldn’t suffer. That was very hard but it’s what you have to do if you’re responsible for an animal – it has to be what it right for them, even it is upsets us. He’d had a really, really good life though. I do miss him.

      I didn’t know I had a horse. Maybe that’s why he died. Sad time :-/

      I’m terribly allergic to horses. If I had one it would probably kill me before it had a chance to die.

      I don’t remember having a horse, maybe that’s why he died. 🙁
