I few months ago i posted about a free horse ( here). In the last 4 weeks he's probably lost about 80 pounds. He was eating, but these past few days he hasn't been eating properly.

I tagged your entry for you, but if you could edit in a title I'd most appreciate it!

Sorry to hear about your old gentleman. Hopefully he'll stay strong until you know it's time. *hugs*

Thanks :) I try to think that i have given him a better life in his older years.
Horses are some of the best healers in my opinion.

Has a vet been out to see him since he lost weight?

Do you live near Baton Rouge?

Maybe talk to Dr. French at LSU.

Anyways, i know it's hard and it may just be his time. Hugs and good thoughts are sent your way.
