Paraplegic Foal: UPDATE..

[Riot]

When I had to make that call (on a sunday) I wanted to make double sure and he just said, "owners know when it's time" I did but I wanted to hear something else.

I know. I'm sorry.

Nobody wants to be responsible for choosing that option, for picking the day or hour, for "playing god". I never wanted to with my own pets. It sucks. Owners need permission that it's okay to choose euthanasia, permission to not feel guilt, to know that their decision is indeed recognized as a final gift given to a much-loved animal.

This thread is too depressing now - I'm glad that foal is improving and doing better!
