I wept on hearing your news, I am so very sorry for you and having lost my own beautiful Section D at twelve to a suspensory injury that resulted in surgery, which brought on a battle with colic over 11 weeks and sadly the team at Leahurst despite all their very best efforts were unable to save him. I am still heartbroken over a year on and don't think I will ever get over losing him long before his time. Enjoy every moment you can with Troy, as those will be very precious memories to cherish forever. I have followed Troys progress and never forgotten him, despite never knowing either of you, I simply fell in love with his pictures and he made me think of Taffy, my boy. I saw you had posted earlier and was expecting some wonderful news and was devastated for you at what has happened. I am thinking of you and will never forget those beautiful pictures of Troy. Take care xxx

Thank you, I am heartbroken but just trying to remember all the good things we've achieved, I had a Photoshoot with him yesterday, he looks so well which makes it even harder to get my head around 😞 I will share some from our Photoshoot when I log in on my laptop as I can't work it out on my phone

So very sorry to hear this. I lost my favourite Sec A last year to colic - there are always some special ones and Troy was yours.

You poor thing, but you have been so brave putting the welfare of your horse before your feelings. What a lucky pony Troy was having you as his owner. RIP Troy

Nothing anyone can say will make this better, it's so hard to say goodbye. Always remember the good times, he was such a gorgeous boy. RIP Troy xxx

My heart goes out to you and no words can make the pain ease at the moment. The photos are absolutely beautiful and wonderful to keep and treasure forever. I have to agree, that Troy was so very lucky to have an owner as brave as yourself, to put his best interests first and foremost. He will be forever remembered by all whose lives he touched, some like myself that never met him in person, but that didn't stop us admiring him from afar. You have been so lucky to have had such a special horse in your life - as I myself was too - some people are not as fortunate as us and never find that 'Special One'. Take care and remember all the wonderful joyous times you had together, he was a very beautiful boy indeed and I for one will never forget him. RIP Troy, sweet dreams, now galloping free across the Rainbow Bridge in sunshine and green fields and rest assured that one day you'll be together once more.
Thinking of you xxx

Tears in my eyes, he is so beautiful, your loss will be hard to bear but you have done the right thing. Lovely photoshoot, what memories you will have to treasure. He may be gone but they are never forgotten.
Over the rainbow bridge with no pain and no worries, Troy will be waiting for you, no matter how long it takes.

So sorry to hear this has happened, he is lovely. I had my beautiful in foal mare PTS last week for severe colic, its just so gutting. We just have to remember how they were I feel for you too, so much, colic is a terrible thing and so sudden usually. I went through weeks of hoping, waiting and praying for the day my beautiful Taffy would be returning home with me and it wasn't to be. I still grieve for him every single day and doubt that will ever change. If he'd have been elderly and had his life I think I would have been able to better understand it and accept what had happened, but when they are still young and look so wonderful on the outside, that makes this a very difficult thing to deal with. I do believe that one day he will be there waiting for me, as The Rainbow Bridge says and we will both be reunited in the best of youth, health and fitness once more. On a slightly lighter note, my husband always says that whe I go over the Rainbow Bridge, that he hopes he isn't next to me, as it will be like a scene from the film 'Jumanji' as all my much loved pets will be in a stampede to be back with me....!!! All I can say in return, is that I really hope that is the case. Thinking of you xxx

Thank you for all the lovely replies, I'm glad my little horse has been admired by everyone, he was a beautiful person. I arrived at the yard yesterday morning to find we had been burgled, its never ending at the moment, I'm hoping some luck will come my way. They pulled the gates off the hinges and smashed through fencing to get to the thing, stole an ifor williams general purpose trailer, all my feed which was brand new bags on thursday, even the feed scoops and the cat food. Thankfully all the horses on the yard are ok, just a bit jumpy x

How awful for you I hope you get the trailer back undamaged. Onwards and upwards, things will change for the better, it probably doesn't seem like it at the moment but before you know it, good things will start happening

Oh utter sh*t heads !!! So sorry for everything you have been through. I always admired Troy and his lovely big trot. You are deserving some luck soon. Maybe Hoya next year and your boy will be looking down on you both bringing you luck. Every time I do well at an event I look up at the sky and think my old girl is looking down on me. 💖😇

I simply cannot believe this has happened to you. Rest assured, karma will come back on the vile creations of humanity that have done this. Onwards and upwards as best you can and rise above what's happened. Thank goodness they didn't harm the horses. Things will get better and there will be a rainbow somewhere through the recent clouds. You definitely deserve some good luck that's for sure and I'm sure I join everyone on here in hoping it arrives quickly for you. Take care, thinking of you xxx
