Linda, these are wise words and they help me to refocus. Today, I have been
thinking too much about how it feels to me to be dealing with this. I need
to think more about how it feels to my horse....and to listen to what he is
telling me. He is still pretty happy, and has a good home and a good buddy
(Icelandic gelding) to be with. If the time comes when he can only live
inside, that would make him miserable. I have an old woman-friend who has
been basically telling me the same thing...guess I haven't been listening
well enough. It takes a lot of trust for me to feel confidant that I will
know when it is time to say goodbye. That happened with my old dog last
Spring...I did know because he told me unmistakeably. I have to trust that
Domino will tell me, too, and he certainly hasn't yet. Thanks...I know
talking about these things can stir up a lot of feelings for those of us who
truly love our animals. Kay in AK
