Smartie in his New Home

ByJon

This week we have moved Smartie to his new home. Smartie has been with us for a few years now, he’s not been an easy pony to home. He first came in as a very abuse pony, very nervous of around humans and at the bottom of the pecking order in the pony herd. He needed a lot of work to gain confidence with us humans.

Thankfully this lovely boy is now in an experienced home, where he’ll be handled and trained and most of all, loved.

We really miss this special guy, however we are happy knowing he has a girlfriend and will get lots of 1 to 1 contact.

We are all missing you Smarite!
