Penny wasn't my horse but I have always claimed her. I met her when she was 26 years old and we had many good times together. She was my dream come true. Penny belonged to my neighbor when I was younger. They had around 16 horses at that time and really couldn't care for them all themselves. My payment for helping was that I got to ride Penny whenever I wanted. As time went on and I left my mom's house I stopped riding Penny. It's been years since I've been on a horse and boy do I miss it. <br><br>Penny was 32-33 years old or something around there. She's not been doing well lately and was completely blind. She couldn't move around well at all and if she were my horse, I probably would have put her down months ago. She was such a pretty girl and I'm going to miss her a lot. Without going into much detail, she got tangled in the fence yesterday and had to be euthanized. I know she's much happier now. RIP little girl. Many people are going to be missing you! <br><br><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h239/ZagariPitBullLover/PHTO0154.jpg" alt="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h239/ZagariPitBullLover/PHTO0154.jpg" class="bb-image" /><br><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h239/ZagariPitBullLover/PHTO0159.jpg" alt="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h239/ZagariPitBullLover/PHTO0159.jpg" class="bb-image" />
She was a 4-H horse for countless kids and many older riders showed her too. Her people still have her daughters and granddaughers to keep her memory alive. She really was my perfect horse.
Dont worry Zag. She's galloping in greener pastures now =/ <br>At least she's remembered. Ive seen so many horses die who were never given the chance to touch someone deeply and know the love of an owner unconditionally. The fact that she obviously meant a lot to not only you, the owners, and probably all the children she helped teach is the best legacy any horse can leave behind and it means as long as all these people are alive she's never truely gone. Her influence is still seen within the people and the touch she left inside them. <br><br><br>(Man! I need to write a book with all these good lines! Or maybe ill become a song writer!!)
