MOWGLI:

 

Mowgli On 3rd March 2011, we were delighted to meet Mowgli when he was delivered to us from Kells, in Co. Meath.  

Mowgli is a 12.2hh, 22 year old grey gelding pony who was homed into a riding school when his little six year old ower/rider died tragically of cancer.  Shortly afterwards, Mowgli started to go lame on one shoulder with suspected arthritis, which of course, rendered him useless for the work of the riding school. The next family visit to check on his well being found him alone, tied up in a dark barn and looking very sad, not at all the happy picture the family wished to remember of their beloved pony.

After a distraught and very poignant email to us, arrangements were soon in place to retire him here.  He arrived on a stunningly beautiful day with brilliant sunshine, blue skies and almost no wind - and went in search of the muddiest patch he could find in the field where he rolled and rolled and rolled!  

Having rearranged his colour scheme to his satisfaction he settled down to eat as if he’d lived here all his life. He’s a delightful pony with a lovely temperament who is sure to woo many a young visitor into parting with love and cuddles.  Although on the thin side on arrival he has improved greatly already with a bit of careful extra feeding. He has had his hooves trimmed and expects a visit from the dentist any time now!
