  • @eatabooger12 He was lame.Plus he/she said he was in his 30'S not 30.They said he was in his 30s so he could have been 34.Hes resting forever happy now.r.i.p shadow:(

  • We have a 34 year old Arabian mare named Dandy. She is still alive and well, we didn't put her down because she was old. Were letting her life her life out like a happy horse should.

    I don't understand why you choose to put a perfectly fine horse down just because he was old.

  • whenever yo put your pet down its sucjh a tragic thing.we never get over it. just learn to live with part of our family gone.so sorry for your loss.

  • Shadow was put down humanely by a Vet. He was surrounded by the people that loved him. I wish all horses could be this lucky.

  • Did that little brat just kick the poor horse at 2:15?!

  • i am not trying to start a fight but i think your faking that i mean think about it :)

  • What is it with people wanting to video your pet and family member being put down. " WAIT I don't have my camera up.. let me set it up first before we kill my horse !".. yes I say KILL because that is what it is, when you want to show it off to the world, vs. putting to sleep.. really.. Lets teach our kids early how to become sick adults!

  • Yo, if i could do something I would have. Pluh, life stinks like a can of fish. Sorry. I had to stop watching the vid or i would have cried... yo i am so sorry.

  • All animals should have the life span of a human. They seem to grow old to fast. I'm truly sorry for your loss. :(

  • This video may have been posted a really long time ago but I have to say; Shadow is beautiful and I am so sorry for your loss :( I read through the comments and I can't believe how much people cared about the breed... Your horse was put down and all they care about is what breed it was? This horse obviously meant alot to you and I'm so sorry :(

  • He would be so glad that you had the courage to make and face the hardest decision that anyone can have to make with one that they love.

  • oh my god im sooo sorry i cried at this :'-( it is terrible to have to watch your animal die or be put down its happened to me before with my prize winning rabitt lily i found her dead in her cage.its so terrible and i know how you feel know one else can feel as sorry if they havnt lost a pet themselves as if they dont understand how it feels.......:'-(

  • why did u have to put him down

  • at 6:38 that was mean when u just pushed aside ur poor dog! and im sorry 2 hear about ur loss

  • i hate seeing horses die it is so sad :,(

  • I know the feeling of losing a loved one... in horse terms as well as others... I lost my 1 year old filly Shiloh November 20, 2010... on my 1 year wedding anniversary... She jumped a fence and broke her leg in two places. There was no way we could have saved her and I was not there for her until the day came to put her down. I did not even know about it until that day. I miss my girl every single day.... may he and Shiloh meet in horse heaven and rest in peace together :)

  • Okay . . . Why did you put him down, he seemed to be in good health (from what I can see of the video)? Please, please tell it's not because of his age . . .

  • @HorsesIC This is appaloosa720, my account (appaloosa720) wont let me sign in so I hadt make another account :(. He was put down because he had arthritis in his right hind leg that got so bad that he could barely walk. He was not put down because he was old.

  • @rachelheck93 Aw, poor guy:( We had to put a horse down at my barn for arthritis a few months ago. I'm sorry for your loss, that's must've been rough. I was just nervous because I know of people who do that:(

  • poor shadow im sorry for your lost my horse died to but not from age from colic but R.I.P shadow

  • So, just out of curiosity, why exactly did he have to be put down?

  • First off he does not look like a appy at all try a paint or a pinto or some breed like that, second of all he looked fine!! why put him down when he was still able to do every thing or it appears as he could?!

  • @EnglishRider211 He was put down because he had arthritis so bad that he couldnt walk without falling over. He was in pain and the vet said there was no other choice.

  • sorry that he died

  • What was the reason for which he was put down? Please tell me it wasn't because he was older than you had thought or because he was old. I had an awesome barrel horse that ran a fast time and was still in good shape at 33 years old. He still had good teeth and good body shape and no health problems. No arthritis. I do not understand why this horse was put to sleep. He was clearly active and still functional. What happens when we turn 70? Do we get put down because someone decided that was old?

  • @Chanceepoo1993 He wasnt put down because of his age. This horse was a rescued horse that the past owners didnt want because he was lame in his right hind leg. He couldnt trot,canter or gallop.He was kept as a pet and wasnt ridden.

  • why did you have to put him down?

  • omg... i feel so sad for u! * cries!!!*

    D-":

  • that must have been really hard for u

  • what happened to him that made him need to be put down? He looks to be in good condition?

  • Even though this was 3 years ago now, I am sorry for your loss. I know how it feels to lose a horse you love. I woke up one morning and my paint horse had collapsed sometime in the night and every few minutes he was have seizures and muscle spasms. When the vet got the he told us the he was also bleeding internally. The vet suspects that he had a tumor some where that burst. It was one of the most difficult days of my life having to stand there and watch my horse die. Remember the good time <3

  • this video mad me cry.... even though i dont have a horse fo my own i love them, and your horse is so beautiful and looks like my fav horse. Im so sorry for your lose... R.I.P <3

  • Riolakota she is not being ignorant!!!!!!!!! She bought him form an abuser and the other owner didint know how old he was your just being plain rude and mean!!!!!!!!!

  • you're damn ignorant if you had the horse for 10 years and didn't know his age

  • @RioLakota and you a jackass. WE had my horse for 15 years and just found out hes 23. not a big deal.

  • @jukka2311 and you dont have to be mean about it!

  • @jukka2311 Who has a horse for FIFTEEN YEARS and doesn't get his teeth checked at least once, not even to have his teeth floated? Lack of vet care and brain.

  • @RioLakota well, i never said we didnt get his teeth checked did i? we take very very very good care of our horses and mustangs. i dont need jackasses like you butting into what me and my family do.

  • @jukka2311 You obviously don't if you don't know your horse's age. I'm not butting in, I'm stating that you (and probably your family) are ignorant horse owners, but it's okay, there are obviously others like you out there.

  • @RioLakota like i said. it was one horse. he was a companion horse. ITS NOT THE BIG OF A GOD DAMN ISSUE! DROP IT ALREADY.

  • Comment removed

  • @RioLakota Excuse me?! where do you gut the damn idea i cut myself you jackass?! your comments will be ignored and blocked from now on. Your a jackass.

  • i am crying and i cant stop :'(

  • sorry for your lost, shadow seemed to be a really nice horse it started to make me cry through the video

  • god bless

  • this is so sad i cant believe people this isnt about the breed really god

  • I cried at this, it doesn't matter what breed he is or if he looks like the breed he is. I'm so sorry he had to be put down and I understand that he was very close to you and I have never felt this pain so I can't say I know what you're going though but I know what it feels like to lose a family member and I expect it feels almost like that. I hope you've managed to move on and may he rest in peace :)

  • @xxCheekyTrioxx what family memeber did u lose ? I just lost my brother :'(

  • ooooo sooooo sad i saw the truck and i was like poor boy... R.I.P

  • OH MY GOD does it really matter what breed he is!!! What does it matter! You guys need to dhut up about the breed, I think the person who owns the horse knows the breed better than you do, and even if your right, she just lost her horse, be a bit nicer, it terrible to lose a horse, and you guys are acting like it doesn't matter, if you can't be nice THEN DON"T COMMENT

  • Tear , this happend to me...tear .......we had rescued a pony from slaughter .....he was the best...then one day I did not know this was going to happen ......but the vet pulled up in the car...can you imagen every day going and see him in pain yet you were the nursing back to health and he was getting better...and when you needed to have him walk he would do it for you...and when he saw you he would look at you with his big bright brown eyes and nicker as best he could...then just losing him..

  • isnt a appolusa a breed not just a colour anyway???

  • @articfoxandrowlatt No an Appaloosa is a breed

  • @breyerbabe99 thats what i just said an appoosa is a breed then like 'blanket' or something is the actual colouring x

  • y was he put down

  • Your horse is gorgeous !!!!!!!!!! I am sorry about the death of your horse!!!!!!!! Not trying to be rude because I loved your video but if I were you next time maybe don't look into the camera as much but everything else was very good but sad!!!<3<3<3 R.I.P. Shadow we will all miss you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooo much !!!!!!!!!!!

  • i have a 32 year old who thinks hes still a 4 year old dressage horse, i just had to put him in a retirement home =/ your horse is gorgeous tho, just remember she is now running free waiting for you to come join her [: my horses video is on my page if you would like to look [:

  • He looks like a pretty healthy 30 year old horse to me. Did you guys put him down because he was 'old'? We had a 34 year old Arabian that had to be put down because he broke a hip. But we wouldnt have had to put him down for a little while longer. He was fat and happy and very healthy. I was just wondering if you put him down because he was 30 or if there were any other reasons behind it. Thanks! Very pretty boy though, sorry you had to put him down.

  • @DivaxoxStarr I have a 34 year old arab too, but he still jumps and does dressage. I'm sorry yours broke his hip

  • leve her alone she know her horse you dont so GO AWAY AND leve them alone xx

  • Cut the family some slack.They just lost their beloved horse and now you make them cry by yelling at them and telling them that their horse is not what the people who own it is. They know what breed their horse is. Now leave them alone.

  • no hes a paint for fuck sakes .

  • I don't know why people r talking about the horses breed, when ur horse was put down.... I'm sorry for ur lose and may Shadow have a happy life in heaven with all ur friends..... R.I.P Shadow

  • Why did he get put down?

  • Why did he have to go? verry sad :(

  • Im sorry for your loss but he was not an appaloossa he is a paint. I used to breed paints.

  • I am sooo sorry for you... I felt like crying... Why was he put down?

  • FUCIK SAKE ALL THESE PETTY COMMENTS! its a sad video cut her some slack! if she thinks hes an appolusa then in her eyes he is! but wht does it matter to you lot anyway! hes still a horse that this girl loved! so shut the fuck up!

  • why kill him he looks fine and you've had other horses die? HHHMMMM

  • why kill him he looks fine

  • @TyDy0723 maybe he has a bad infection that u cant see

  • aw thats really sad

  • why r we arguing about what breed we should remember the horse

  • why did you put him down

  • uuh , sorry to ruin your moment ... but this is a paint . not an effing appaloosa .

  • @ShiningStarr8 um yes he is tho because i looked up snow flake appys and it showed that he has the pattern of a snow flake appy

  • I feel ur pain my horse Timey went to retirement in Calie!I cryed sooo mutch but the i rode a new named Milo! :'(

  • I'm so sorry for you, but this horse really doesn't look like a 15 years old one!!!

    And I don't know if it's good to make a video of his last moments AND do it on Youtube just to get all these comments like: "Oh, I'm sooooooo sorry for you. "

    And I know how it is to lose a horse.

  • I'm so sorry for you, but this horse really doesn't look like a 15 years old one!!!

  • It doesn't matter if its an appaloosa or a paint, the point is a video in memory of her horse. People have no maturity these days.

  • why did u put him down??

  • You know more about the horse than anyone else because it belongs to you guys.And this is too the other veiwers,"There is no reason to argue because the horse is gone.It is a sad time and all you other veiwers can think about is the whether it is an appaloosa or a paint.Thats just sad." :(

  • i can not wonder why you people are talking about the breed and markings when have you not noticed that this vidieo was about a loved horse that had to be put down not to talk about its breed and markings and im so sorry for your horse i know what its like to lose a animal thats close to you :'(

  • @9ale9flippy thats exactly what i was thinking.....

  • @9ale9flippy sometimes horses can look fine and healthy but they are lame or they aren't going to make it through the winter thats why he might have had to be put down

  • @9ale9flippy i agree with you, Why does it matter about the markings? cant people just give thier sorry's.?????

  • im so sorry for you! even if i didnt know him, ill miss him soooo much!

  • sooooooooooooo sad and to al those peepole out there who think shadow is not an appy are worng. you dont have to a a fully classifyed appy pattern for it to be an appy. it could have a unregisterd coat pattern (of appys) thatis a mix between its sire and dam

  • but why was put down he doesnt have any injuryy...¡

  • why did you have to put him down?

  • he was beautiful.

  • its an appaloosa? my paint mare has those ecact markings.

  • hey this is anntonette...shut tha fukk uhp ppl down there bc this horse was loved and who cares what kind it was it belonged to a loven family

  • 3 years today right?? awww:( Im sorrrryyyy:(

  • I am so sorry for your loss, <3 However, those who are posting here are correct on his markings.This is not an appaloosa. I'd say he's a borderline breeding stock paint, and only borderline due to the white at his shoulder and above the hock on his hind legs. Snowflake pattern appaloosas can look very similar to roan markings, all the way on up to blanket style without the dark markings on the blanket. Also, no signs of the "toad spot" eyes or lips, which are almost 100% characteristic.
