Thank you Michael. I was afraid you were going to succumb to the mighty
dollar. When my first ram Blackie, was not usuable for service, I
wethered him and he turned out to be a great pet and would lead the
flock in to the pen or wherever I needed them. He later had an injury
to his feet, he was over 20 years old, and was not in good health.
After 2 weeks of trying to get his feet to heal, we decided to put him
out of his misery. He now hangs over the fake fireplace mantel where he
can watch over us and we can watch him. When I picked him up at the
taxidermist, it was like finding a lost friend.

I was talking about when he dies. That part was not clear--now that I re-read
it. He's my pet and will live his life out naturally on my ranch.

I'm surprised and saddened the hear talk of executing this noble creature
rather than continuing to admire and respect him for what he has given and the
beautiful stature he presents to all who see him. Is this how we repay
elegance?
normally, I might consider taxidermy to be a morbid way to keep an old
pet, but in his case, I might make an exception.
