[M.D. Holloway]

When our Son found out he just looked out the window and didn't say a word for maybe 5 minutes. My Wife asked if he was OK and he replied "I don't know if I wanna ride any more. I just don't wanna feel sad about sumptin that will die someday."

I told him "Everything that lives will die someday. Thats way its important to treat people and animals as best you can so you know that as far as your concerned they had the best life. Lollipop ws a great horse and he had a great life."

"But why did he have to put down? Just cuz of a bad bone in his leg?"

"Horses can't heal like dogs or cats or even people. When they bust a bone in their leg they have to put down or they will spend the rest of their days in agony. That wouldn't be right."

"I wish they could heal better..."

I am sure their are plenty of T-bred owners that feel the same way.
