My pony died yesterday aged 30. We had her from 6 months old and she taught me what I know about riding ( and falling / broken bones etc ). Her arthritis became bad and she could no longer get up without help, so we let her go to pony paddock up above. Soooooo sad !!
You must be heartbroken but what a lucky pony to have had such a lovely long life in the care of a single home, you should be very proud of yourself on managing to achieve that
Thirty years in one loving home that is a beautiful epitaph in itself. RIP Gray, and good for you on knowing when to let go thats the hardest thing of all.
