Rest In Peace Baby, You Will Never Be Forgotten - Paddy ♥

This is our pony paddy, he died yesterday 10/08/11 at 14 years old, we dont know what caused it but he was collicing and being sick through his nose, after 3 days of him fighting we decided to stop him suffering, so now he is in peace.

Paddy was the best pony in the world, I got him when i was 12 and he didnt half teach me how to ride, he was such a monkey when he wanted to be. He was part of many peoples lives and taught many people to ride. After i outgrew him, Izzy had him for over a year and came on so well with him, she was so strong at the end. He will be saddly missed by everyone from the yard and by everyone that knew him.

I have so many memories of Paddy, too many to put on here, some good some bad, but we would never have changed how he was, We will all miss our grumpy little man. Rest in peace super cob :')

I held him in my arms so tight,
Through the darkness and fury of the night.
I pushed a lock of hair into its place,
...I knew that he would not win this race.
All of the years that he had been my friend,
The long journey had finally come to an end.
As I brush my tears away,
I remember those special days.
We would gallop through fields from sunrise to sunset,
We knew that both of us would never forget.
All day and all night,
We would gallop on without a single fight.
As he took in his final breath,
I knew that it meant he had an easy death.
As I shut his eyelids tight,
He disappeared into the stormy night.
I saw his soul gallop off happy and content,
As I whispered into his ear "Goodbye, my friend."
