Happy Pony Stories!

We had some really delightful news yesterday about Charlie, the New Forest pony who was next on our waiting list to come to us.  His owner Louise got in touch to say that Charlie has been very lucky and found a forever home!!



Louise says "Last month I moved the horses to a new yard as the land I was keeping them on was being sold.  At the new place are two Andalusian mares who were rescued from a Spanish slaughter house last year and brought to the UK.  With lots of love and attention they have been recovering and healing but remained nervous and lacking in confidence.  Within the first week of turning up Charlie decided that his job in life was to look after these beautiful girls and they have blossomed under his care.  The mares owner has decided that he has had such a positive impact on their lives she would like them all to remain together as a herd.  As you can imagine I am absolutely chuffed to bits, especially as this wonderful lady has seen past his difference to the true him.  She thinks he is very special, as do I!

Thank you for taking the time to talk to me about Charlie, and for giving me hope when everyone else had given up on him.  I have attached a photo of Charlie with one of the mares, they are all so happy together"
What lucky ponies they all are...and thank you to Charlie for the donation he sent to our ponies!  We wish them all lots of happiness together!



...And earlier in the week we also had a photo of Jessie (the fearless foal's Mum who was part of the Dartmoor group rehomed a few years ago) who resides at the Pit Pony Sanctuary - looking great and very comfortable under saddle.
