Across the rainbow bridge:
Cheveyo:
On June 11, 2008, Cheveyo was rushed to the university vet hospital for an
extreme bout of colic. Attempts at colic surgery discovered massive
lesions and tumors in his abdomen. He was allowed to remain at rest and to bring
his extreme suffering to an end.
GrayC: On January 26, 2006, we had to put a horse to rest for the first time. GrayC was a darling Arabian mare who tragically had a compound break of a hind leg and was humanely euthanized when the vets confirmed there was nothing they can do. We will never forget you, GrayC.
Hagrid and Diego: Rest in peace, dear sweet old friends. These two gentlemen were lucky enough to have several years in the kindest, most loving of adoptive homes,
when Mother Nature finally insisted it was Diego's time, and Hagrid (also elderly, in ill health, and terribly attached to his dear friend) was lovingly allowed to cross the rainbow bridge with him.
Rocky
crossed the rainbow bridge in fall 2007. This darling miniature/pony cross will
be loved and remembered forever by so many. We miss you, Rockers, every day. |
