Goodbye, Dakota
by Kim Sweeney on
It’s been a rough few days. I try to remind myself where there is pain, there is joy just around the corner.
Sadly, our sweet Dakota crossed the rainbow bridge on Tuesday. Dakota was a 24-year-old Rocky Mountain horse who came into the rescue last year as a Sanctuary horse, as he had DSLD. The past month he was starting to show signs of pain, and his back left pastern was very close to the ground. Dr. Knowles and I agreed it was better to let him go on a good day before the ligament got worse. It’s never easy making these decisions, but I will always do what’s best for the horses.
Run free, sweet boy. Tell Montana I miss her.
