Dartmoor Ponies: update

The ponies have been at Brinsley for five weeks now. We are very pleased with the way they have settled and responded.

All have had a spruce up and are brushed daily. They have head collars put on, and are just beginning to learn about the lead rope.
These bright ponies will need a friend in the future. If you have the experience and facilities, and would like to get to know a pony in view of loaning, please contact us.
If you would like to sponsor a pony please see our sponsor information.
