A little after 3pm. He is in donkey heaven ripping coyotes to shreds. It was his sciatic nerve. We kept him up as long as we could to get the backhoe fixed to bury him. Sciatic nerve issues in equines are usually catastrophic and result in euthanasia. Like Jericho here. I was finally able to definitively age him closer to 40 than 35.
He was a good boy, truly a short king. He took on a mtn loin and won. As soon as he passed there was a mtn lion in hell who felt true fear in ita soul when Jericho left this mortal coil.
He never did anything naughty but he was mischievous, he was never mean. Except with his feet in the beginning. He was always happy to see me. He made me feel so loved. He was my perfect little, old man. He was my bub, my little fucker. I love him so much. Right now he is on my front lawn prepped for burial. We were able to lay him down for the procedure. I didn't want him to slam to the ground. When given the sedative he got scared. And tried to run on his side. He was shaking for a minute the vet allowed me and @facelesslurker to calm him down and slow his heart rate and let the sedative take affect so he could have a few moments of peace. He died on my partners arms and me rubbing his tummy. He d!€d calm as the vet allowed us to calm him down before.
