Sorry for the loss, but that was one lucky horse to have you as owners, you gave him a great life where others may not have done so.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Yes. We have a 19 year old Appaloosa, named Breeze, that she bought in 2013. The big issue with this horse, aside from all the normal horse expense was trying to find a saddle that worked for both Donna and the horse. Initially she has spent thousands on a custom made saddle that didn’t worked out. She did finally find one that is good for both but we are left trying to sell the other for pennies on the dollar. Of course there is the weekly training costs too. I suspect this weekend with Triton will be $1k or more. Definitely less expensive hobbies! Now that Triton’s is gone she won’t know what to do with all the extra money. Here’s a shot of Breeze being exercised by one of the student’s who come in from Michigan State University to help out and get to ride for free.

So sorry to hear you have lost Triton. I can't imagine the heartache. Breeze looks beautiful.

It's always sad to lose anyone that's close to you, especially animals.

Triton was our Ferrari and Breeze is our Honda - you know she's going to get you there.

Donna plans to make 'dog' birthday cup cakes for Roxy and the two brothers since they will all be one year old on Monday. I can't wait to see if they can blow out the candle.

I'm guessing they will eat the candle.
