I have enough land to take care of the old ones till there time has come and still add new ones so I am lucky there. If I didn't or if I could not arrange something like MB I would limit getting anymore. That doesn't mean that I won't make the right decision when it has to be made. But my horses have done a valuable service to me and I will see they are taken care of for their lifetime.
