Juno and Sammy move to their Forever Home

Juno and Sammy are rescued Dartmoor Ponies, they are two of the many ponies we have rescued from certain slaughter.

Each year hundreds of Dartmoor Ponies are rounded up off the moor and sent to auction. Sadly they sell for as little as £5, many are then killed for pet food or fed to lions and tigers in zoos. We rescue them, train them from wild ponies to become great pets.

Juno and Sammy have now gone to their amazing new home, where they’ll be kept as pets. Good luck Juno and Sammy, we miss you but we are so happy you have a great new home.
