It's happened to most of us at some point in our lives: that day when we are forced to make a decision to put one of our best companions to rest.  Whether it be to ease their suffering, or due to human or equine safety issues, the decision is never easy.  But once they are at peace, another problem arises - what to do with their remains.  Horses are large creatures and handling their bodies after death can be quite difficult.  Since this is often an emotional decision, it helps to know your options long before that time comes.
