TO MY HORSES: You carry me without judgment and without complaint. You catch my tears in your thick mane. When I feel alone, you love me. The times I feel the most lost, you have helped me find the way home. My deepest love I give to you and my promise to you is that you ALWAYS have a safe and loving home....it's the LEAST I can do for all you've done for me...Thank you. (Sharon Stone)

I have 4. 2 dogs and 2 horses (plus William (cat) RIP ♥). All rescues. All sookie. I've known Leo for a very long time, and he and Missy came to live with me about 4 years ago. Missy died in a tragic accident last year and I've been blessed to find Annie, Leo's new mate. They're both thoroughbred, Leo's around 35 and Annie's 22 I think. My dogs are Billie and Suki. Billie was dumped near here, and chose me as his human. I've had him 11 years, and not really sure how old he is. Suki was a badly treated puppy, and came to live with us about 5 years ago. William found me at a friends house and came home and blessed us for 11 years or so. He died peacefully at home with Billie and I singing to him. Billie was very upset when he got sick and grieved badly when he died, but Suki either didn't care or couldn't cope, not sure which. Her and William used to go to bed together around 6pm every night, but she doesn't do that anymore. So she does miss him. All love their Mama, and possessive (like all little kids), but we love each other and generally are one big happy family. |

Sounds like you are very blessed to have them all....RIP William. A 35yo TB - now that is impressive! Does he have any teeth left? (Just curious). |

Yay to you Billiesuki for taking on such aged horses. ![]() As for the dogs - I think rescue dogs love you all the more because they know you've saved them. And, William sounds like one lucky cat. It's the best end anyone could hope for - at home, at peace and surrounded by loved ones. |
