🕊️ Saying goodbye on a good day 🕊️
As the colder winter months approach, we know many horse owners face one of the hardest decisions of all — saying goodbye to an aging or chronically ill horse.
Northern winters can be especially challenging for older horses who struggle with arthritis, poor body condition, or chronic pain. Those joints that are creaky on a warm day, certainly aren’t going to work any better on a cold one.
When quality of life becomes too compromised, as difficult as it is, choosing humane euthanasia can be the most compassionate last gift we can offer them. Please know that making this decision does not mean you’ve failed your horse. ❤️ It means you’ve loved them enough to put their comfort first. ❤️
Below is a form that may help you assess your aging horses quality of life. It is meant to be used in conjuction with conversations with us. We are here to help guide you through this process with empathy and understanding.
We believe strongly that a day too soon is better than a day too late. 🕊️♥️
