Today we lost our wonderful gentle giant Lockie (Brackenbrae Warlock) He was a kind and loving gentleman of a horse, who would put up with everything from everyone, human or horse, stoically.
The horses were having a huge run about in the fields and Lockie was charging around with them, kicking his heels in the air having a great time, when he collapsed. He died peacefully a few minutes later, before the vet could arrive, but with his whole tribe around and with him.
The lady from Equine Recovery Services came to collect him less than three hours later and his mother Lizzie and Jack his best friend stayed by the fence to see him off. We are devastated but it was quick and he seemed in no pain. He will be greatly missed by all of us at Brackenbrae.
