Horatio


HORATIO

A very elderly white pony around 12.2hh relinquished through Leitrim County Vet. Found, apparently, abandoned in Drumshambo and no owner come forward.

He was in good health except for having only 2 teeth, plus one tusk and some back molars. His thin hooves needed trimming but he had obviously been looked after throughout his lifetime. He later lost his left eye.

He has problems eating and consequently it is difficult to keep his weight up.

Passed away suddenly after a stroke, August 2010. A much missed character; the yard is very quiet without his hooves banging on the gate.

 

Fairy Snow

 

 

FAIRY SNOW (left)

A pure white albino 3 year old filly relinquished on 23rd August 2005 as she suffers severe sweetitch and her owner could not manage her problem.

About 13 hh, (expected to make 14.2 - 15hh). A very sweet natured and quiet pony. Her eyesight not good in bright light or sunshine.

She was subsequently treated for sweetitch with good success rate using Freedom 45 SpotOn.

 

 

 

BRANDY

An attractive 7 year old 12hh dark bay Exmoor pony. Relinquished during November 2006. He was overweight with a kind nature and breathing difficulties.


Brandy

 

The vet confirmed he had had a rope halter left on him, probably as a foal, which had grown too tight, becoming embedded in his nose and behind his ears and had damaged his nasal passages.

He now has white scarring over the nose and behind the ears. He is heavy crested and has a history of laminitis.

 

He eventually lost his excess weight and turned into a stunning pony. Recently (2010) he found his way into the hearts of a young family in North Donegal where his job is to be companion pony to their own elderly Shetland gelding. This is an experienced home, able to manage Brandy’s laminitis and the problems he has with breathing from his damaged nasal bones and cervical vertebrae. We wish him a happy life with his new family and look forward to visiting him in a very beautiful part of Ireland. It is wonderful to see such a great pony happily rehomed.
