Thanks for all the input. Had it done yesterday. Only proplem I got now it the clay pile froze and the dozer was having a hard time back filling, got a couple of feet of dirt on him but waiting for the 30 degree weather this weekend to finish back filling.
The horse is kinda mine and my niece, she and I are making a tomestone this weekend to put at his grave site. Already have 2 other horses from years and years ago there and one of my dogs I had for 14 years, made them all tomestones when they died and just reuse the form and change the lettering.
Reason I went with the vet is I can remeber when my grandpa was alive at butchering time, he would use a 22 and put it a few inches away from cows head and pull trigger, worked all but 1 time. Grandpa shot, cow layed down then got up and walked away!!! Dad had to use the 30-30 which did the job but is a bit much, after that grandpa always used the 25-20 kinda inbetween a 22 and a 30-30.
Last pig I butchered a few years ago I had to call my dad to pull the trigger, I can watch but I just get attached to all my animals, cows, horses, pigs, goats, donkeys, dogs, and barn cats. When you feed them everyday and I kinda talk to them when feeding them they are like family too me being I have no kids. Doesnt bother me when its time to put a steer or pig down cause I know the whole time their growing its for meat but just cant pull the trigger myself!
Just hate loosing a pet!! But its part of owning them and after 30 years of a good life the horse is in a better place with no pain.
Ryan
