Rest in Peace, Macho

Macho Nacho was the first Shetland I ever met, and a pony I will remember for a long time.

We received him the summer of 2013, he had some unsightly health issues but was very adorable and very sweet. He'd wander up to you to say hi, and loved being pet and scratched, and loved it even more if you had 'the G word': grain.

He was euthanized the night of December 23, 2014. He was happy and content and stayed warm and cozy in the barn with his grass hay and grain, but he was in his mid-30s and his sores hadn't ever fully healed. We all knew it was the right thing, but I still miss him very much.

Love you, Macho boy <3 p="">
