We have some wonderful news! We have found Jeremy and he is safe and well, and returned to p4p...just one week after we reported him as stolen to the police. It's been such a worrying week. Each day we've been working to piece together the story of what has happened to him and where he has been. We had traced part of his story to a location in Cornwall, and the police were about to follow this lead when on Tuesday we received an email from a family in North Devon. They had bought an Exmoor X pony called Jeremy on Sunday and were just looking him up on the internet to find out if there was anything about him online, when they discovered our webpage and blog asking for help because our Exmoor X called Jeremy had been stolen! They got in contact, and we were able to establish that the pony the family had bought just had to be the same Jeremy. Today, Faye and the police detective handling the case visited the family and Jeremy. As soon as Faye got out of the car, Jeremy saw her, whinnied, and ran over. It was just such a relief for Faye to see Jeremy again and know that he is OK.
The police are pursuing the original offenders involved in the case and will be conducting interviews etc.
We would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has helped us to find Jeremy...particularly Hazel-Ann who has been piecing together information on the known locations of Jeremy; Jane and all the Facebookers who have spread the word across the equestrian world of Devon and beyond to help to find him; DC Sam Napier who has been brilliant in handling Jeremy's case; and again to the family who came forward and reunited us with him.

Thanks for letting him stay with us! Promise we'll give him all he deserves, what a special pony.

Thanks Anita, Jeremy's a very lucky pony indeed! We're all very grateful to you for getting in touch and reuniting us!
It would be interesting to know what happened to him. I sold a horse a few years back who was eventually sold on to 'a lov9ng family home' and I later got a call from some new owners who had bought him a couple of days later from a local dealer! Minus all his carefull fitted tack:-( His is now with a lovely forever home and I only know cause someone had written my number on his passport but it would be useful to know who the dodgy operators are in this area...surprising he turned up again so locally you'd have thought they would go to a different part of the country. Glad it had a happy ending tho :-)
