Lost a foal - have a nurse mare and/or colostrum

[little lady]

So sorry for your loss ((hugs)). You made the right decision, but it is never easy.

Oh Parmela, I'm so sorry. Heartbreaking to lose them under any circumstance, but I think it has to be harder when you have to make that decision. It's the right thing though - and the humane thing - to do, in my mind. Glad your mare is okay.

What a stunning little foal. I am so sorry for the loss sometimes it is so very hard to let them go when it is a new life.

 

[Reble]

So sorry

 

[REO]

:CryBaby I'm so sorry Parmela

 

[Shortpig]

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. What a beautiful little colt he was. I also want to say what a wonderful person you are to think about others so quickly after your loss. This is such an opportunty for your mare to save another. How wonderful it would be for her and another foal to save each other in their time of need.

Words can't express how sorry I am - those are the decisions we all dread. But thank God you were there for your mare, and how generous of you to offer her as a nurse. Here's hoping for all good luck from here on out.

I am sitting here with tears welling over as I know what you are going through and it is the hardest decision we have to make as breeders. A few years ago I had a badly deformed dwarf that wouldn't have had a very good life and we put him down the next day. The decision to put down a sweet, innocent baby that had done nothing wrong but have the misfortune to be born deformed just rips at your heart. That was the hardest loss I have ever experienced and yes, we both made the right decision but it will stay with me the rest of my life.

I am very sorry for yours and Sweet Pea's loss. He looks like he was a gorgeous little boy.

 

[Maxi'sMinis]

Sorry very very sorry. I know that must have been so hard to do. Sending prayers for your aching heart.

I'm so sorry Parmela! You made a brave decision for your beautiful little colt and did the right thing. Your little guy will have his big brother Jedi to look after him now.

I hope you have a WONDERFUL foaling season after this.

[SIZE=12pt]I'm certain that you received my response to your email that you sent me this morning regarding the circumstances. [/SIZE]

But I just wanted to tell you again how deeply sorry I am that you've had to endure yet another difficult task of letting one of your beloved horses go. I know that it wasn't an easy decision. But unfortunately it was the right one.

Please know that even with his slight flaw that he was an absolutely STUNNING little colt. I can't blame you for being disappointed for the loss. You have every right to be.

I am so very sorry. I can't imagine

how difficult that was.

My heart hurts for you. No words to express what I want to say.

He is a beautiful little angel.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

That is such a hard decision to make and just breaks your heart. You did what was best for the foal, I sincerely pray the rest of your foaling season is uneventful.

Oh what a precious little boy - I am so sorry that you had to put him down but it does sound like you made the right decision - a very tough decision but done with love

[HGFarm]

Oh I am so sorry!! He was adorable. My heart breaks for you and your little mare. If no one needs the colostrum, my vet told me to save it in double freezer bags, date it and put it in the freezer in case you need it later!!

 

[PrestigeMiniHorses]

Oh no

I am so sorry you had to go through this.... He was such a doll...
