Rescued Pony

We have rescued yet another unwanted pony, the country is awash with them!. Up and down the country breeders are unnecessarily putting mares into foal when there is no hope of a future for them unless rescue centres step in.

The owner of this pony had hundreds. The breeding had spiralled out of control and he was eventually prosecuted. This lad is now 4 years old, is a Welsh pony and has been gelded. He is strong willed but has met the rest of our herd and gets on well. He is a lovely boy and will be looking for a home. He loves company (human and equine). He is used to being stabled at night and would be a great pony for someone who wants to invest time in him.

This chappie though is a bit of a puzzle. Rescued from Attenbourough Natutre Reserve, he came to us all…

  • Pigeons

    Another pigeon squab arrives to be hand reared. This squab needed rescuing, he was on the floor having fallen out of the nest. Far too often fledglings are picked up which should not be disturbed. Pigeons make great parents, but they aren’t very clever at making secure nests, they often resemble a pile of twigs…
