Reason 342 not to own a horse...

When people find out I live the country, they always ask if we have horses... While horses are beautiful, I have no plans to have any. My buddy's predicament compounds my argument against horse ownership.

On Thursday, his daughter's horse died unexpectedly.

What do you do with a dead horse?

The ground is frozen and will be until late March or April so burying it won't be easy without bringing in a big excavator or having a large fire first. Their acreage isn't big enough to just drag it off into the corner for the coyotes (and it was a pet so this isn't really kosher).

He was planning to wrap it in a tarp and bury it in snow until the spring. This seems like a bad idea to me...

What would you do!
