The moving goodbye between a horse named Major and its owner. The man died after saving him from a life of mistreatment
The horse Major it has moved thousands of people. Animals are able to show gratitude towards those who love and care for them. Whether it’s a dog, a cat and as in this case, a horse.
The story comes from West Virginia and was spread by a woman named Janna Grapperhaus. Many years ago, his dad brought home a beautiful horse, which he had decided to call Major.
He had a wild demeanor, as his previous owners had not been able to educate him in the right way. They had used too harsh ways, which they understood beatings and leave it for hours tied to a pole without food or water.
When Dad took him home, the horse managed to jump over 5 fences and bit and hit anyone in his way to escape.
But Janna’s dad decided not to give up and to keep trying win trust by Major. Instead of “beating him”, he had decided to try another approach, that of sweetness and of kindness. Everyone doubted his intentions and were afraid.
My dad never used hard on him, he won his heart. Every single day, for hours on end, Dad worked to earn the trust of that battered horse. It took two years, but it paid off in the end.
After two long years of love and care, Major is finally here trusted by its owner. From that moment the two became one.
The farewell between Major and his human friend
Sadly the man died recently and while his family and friends gathered to mourn at his funeral, the horse has greeted in his own way.
Major walked over to the coffin and greeted him with a last kiss.
It seemed right that he too should say goodbye.
A beautiful story, which teaches us that we shouldn’t never lose hope and that love is capable of take care of everything.
