Ever consider that the owner might love the horse and as long as it can live happily and healthily she would do anything to keep it alive? A horse that is suffering all the time and cannot be helped should be put down. Not one that has many happy days ahead of it.

My horse had some weird allergy to sun light. He'd head shake and do all this weird things because of it, but i think it was because he was inside all the time. Now that he lives outside, he never once has done it since.

allergies apparently occour when the "victim" isnt used to something and then suddenly goes to it. It doesnt always happen.... but it can.. and does, in all species. This horse probably didnt have too much grass at a young age the this woman chucked it in a field and now it "allergic"
