Scooter and Wolfie were fast asleep when we arrived! |

Waking up and having a roll! |

Wolfie and Helen with Scooter following on behind |
Today Hazel-Ann and Faye went to visit Wolfie, who is one another of the p4p loan ponies. It was really good to see Wolfie again - he's looking really great and has come on such a lot. He used to be one of the more nervous ponies, and was actually one of the first ponies Faye interacted with on her first ever day at p4p. Helen, his loan mum, was already interested in him then but he would only ever let Paul or Cilla catch him and no-one else...so they worried that he might not be able to go on loan. When Faye visited p4p on her first day she caught Wolfie and there was hope that he would be able to go out on loan after all.
Wolfie's been with his family and companion horse Scooter for about 7 years now and is clearly very comfortable and happy in his home. The horses' field is alongside the river Taw and the horses have access to it - apparently Wolfie goes into the deeper parts of the river to cool off and stay out of the flies in the summer! There are also a couple of ponies nearby on the other side of the river that they go downstream to visit sometimes!
Helen and Wolfie are clearly a great match and he's much more confident now and comfortable about being around people. Helen's due to retire from her job soon and she's looking forward to spending more time with the horses.
