Simple Measures

This week has gone by so fast!  Thank you to everyone for helping to promote the results of our Bodmin research which were covered by Pirate FM and the Western Morning News...calling for there to be compulsory winter feeding of ponies by owners, provision of minerals all year around, and clean water supplies (with toxic ones fenced off)...all simple measures which should be provided under the Animal Welfare Act.

Thank you to Thea for donating the stall space for us yesterday at Wellington school where the tombola was popular with the children!  And thank you again to Catherine and Victoria for ponysitting for the day!
Our beautiful 36 year old!
The ponies are enjoying the full extent of their winter pasture now - Topsy stays on her lusher pasture but fancied an expedition into the main pony field to find just the perfect spot to roll in!

Oscar had his anniversary this week - 2 years since he arrived from the Dog's Trust...so he had a selection of tasty treats to celebrate!  Happy Anniversary Oscar!

Topsy looks wonderful, bless her. She's so lucky to have such tender, loving care. I just wish the ponies on Bodmin were so well looked after but with the type of owners they have it is highly unlikely that they will experience this level of care. Sometimes I think perhaps that naming and shaming the owners of the starving ponies might just work quite well.
