            Nor I---BUT---ya' gotta' remember--not every horse is somebody's
best buddy--you sound like you are talking "one horse or two"  for some who
has 20-30 horses---I doubt they are ALL  best buddies.   I couldn't eat a
calf I raised by hand, either, but I have no problem with eating "generic"
beef.
            Just another perspective, not necessarily my point of view.
