Oh Babe! I've never met you but this breaks my heart. It's so difficult to lose a friend like this. My prayers go out to you and Cowboy.

Thank you for all the love, support, and prayers sent both online and offline. It has been very hard for Cowboy but he'll be ok. Jack is buried at the farm by a tree and will always be loved and remembered cause he was so very special.
Cowboy has been working with one of Jack's foals this week. His name is Tequila. He's 2 years old and has been saddle broke but never ridden. You cant break a horse till after they are 2 or you'll mess up their joints and knees and muscles. He hopes Tequila will make a good rider. I do too.
Anyways, I just wanted to thank all of you for the wishes and so does Cowboy. I directed him to this forum so he's been reading. Thank you all.

I like the names that cowboy gives to his horses. Did you ever ride the special horse that cowboy has for you, Babe. You know the one whose name starts with B!

Yea and we got along at that. LOL Of course I know lots of other Brandy's that I get along with so this was no big surprise. She's a great horse and looks good too. Not quite as dark in color as Jack but beautiful.

I know, we can name his future horses... Marty (short for Martini) Sunrise or Sonrise (be good if Tequila had a son!) Grasshopper Mr. Asti (for Martini and Rossi Asti Spumante) Sloe Fizz
