Ponies Homed

This weekend we took Willow and Dancer to their new life-long home.We have been working with these lovely girls for months now, training them so that they can be handled, hooves trimmed and get use to vets examinations. On the day they loaded into the horse box with ease and behaved impeccably on arrival at their new home. They now have a fantastic life-long home with a family who will devote their love on these girls.Even the local cattle herd came out in numbers to greet them. Willow and Dancer have lived with our cow herd so didn’t batter an eyelid.
