Wispa and Oisin:
WISPA and her miniature gelding friend OISIN arrived in Spring / Summer 2011 , relinquished as the elderly lady who was looking after them was finding the going just too tough, especially after the last winter. Wispa was on foster loan from the ISPCA to keep Oisin company and the two were great friends to each other throughout the really bad weather.

Interestingly, given the option to choose differently, Wispa graduated to the larger ponies and Oisin took charge of AYWA and ARIA, two miniature Shetland mares, herding them around in a tight-knit little group under the unmistakable label of “My Girls” so it made sense when the opportunity arose, to foster the three of them together to a lovely home locally where they have settled in brilliantly and are much loved.
Wispa also found an outstanding home in North Donegal with a family of three teenage children, one of which is particularly gifted with horses. The family already have a Wispa look-alike called Trigger, the existing and very lonely pony who was over the moon to have a friend of his own at last.
