Dedication to a friend so true........ Salisbury Suspicious Love (Ruby) 17-10-2001 - 19-08-2013 I find it rather hard to still acknowledge loosing you Ruby. I find when I do talk about it all I get wrapted up in the dramatics and make myself all flustered and uncomfortable, so mostly it is easier to pretend nothing happened. It doesnt mean I dont think about you a bit too much...... How do I ever thank an animal that meant so much to me. That showed me unconditional love and loyalty and such strength of character........ It is more than winning ribbons, raving about that is a tad boring and well you cant take that with you but it is about the relationship and the smile you used to put on my dial (and yes we did use to argue)....... Ruby was my perfect pony (for me) she was affectionate, she was a headturner, she had flare, she was liked by many, she could be grumpy (at horses cause she just wanted me and anyway she wasnt a horse)..... I never forgot though the biggest thing she ever did for me, it was the day after mums funeral and I wasnt feeling flash at all....... I had 5 days before I was planning to ride her at the royal Melbourne show (I had never competed at September royal before).....I am sure everyone but my family thought I just wasnt going to be able to make it, I hadnt ridden since my dear mum had passed away in my arms 10 days earlier. So I saddled her up, I could hardly throw my leg over, I rode her around the paddock sobbing, I couldnt even see, I bawled and bawled, we just walked, I hung my head down and buried my tears in her warm neck...... I hoped off and I hugged her, I thanked her, she was the most blessed pony........ Thank you Ruby for choosing me to spend your life with, I am forever grateful...........Nothing compares to you.........
