This may sound harsh but if I can’t provide retirement for my horse at my home I think I would prefer to have him put down. Unless I happen upon the perfect home the stress of leaving the place he has lived his entire life seems cruel.

I believe that my horses deserve to retire at home. They have provided many years of love and service and deserve my continued love and care. Older horses are invaluable to teaching manners to the younger generation and make good babysitters in pasture.

Luckily my horses can retire at home. Can’t imagine paying retirement board on a horse.

If at all possible, retired horses should stay in the care of their owner in my opinion. That’s the only way to be certain your faithful old plug will be treated as you think he should be and you’ll never have to worry about him ending up feeding lions in the wild animal park or at a kill auction.
