Overall: Is there proof of Sardar's death? The article uses was; but does not mention his death. Redtigerxyz ^Talk 17:10, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou...@Redtigerxyz:... I don't know what happened to Sardar. As the average life span of a horse is 30 years and max 60, I assume he is no more. Whispyhistory (talk) 17:18, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

References [1][2] say "After Jackie Kennedy left the White House, Sardar presumably lived most of his days quite happily at the Kennedy’s Virginia home." You may add the same in article for completeness. Good to go. Redtigerxyz ^Talk 03:32, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Redtigerxyz:... Thank you. Done. Whispyhistory (talk) 08:19, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
