Aida Update

Aida, one of our two sister Highland ponies, is still currently going under treatment for his sacroid above her left eye. This week, she has been back at the Vet School in Glasgow for another round of treatment. Since February, she has had a number of treatements including chemotherapy and Cryotherapy, which have had varying degrees of success.

After her treatment this week, we are releasing a statement detailing exactly what has happened during the treatment and the current situation. The full statement can be found by download via the following link.

Horse Update

Following our earlier email regarding the horses which are retiring this summer, we are very happy to say that homes have now been found for Tino and Tinkerbelle.

Monty - £1300
Bannockburn RDA has for sale this super black 4yr old cob he was backed in the winter and is developing all the time.

We Need Horses

We are currently reviewing our ponies and it is time for some to think about retiring and having an easier life.

So we are now on the look out for some new ponies. We need Geldings - one at 13.2hh and others 14.2hh - 15.2hh well built cobs - age 6 to 12 . These horses must be sound and have great temperaments and be capable of walk, trot, canter and a small jump. If there are any out there that you know of that carriage drive, even better!

Fab home awaits - we would prefer horses for long term loan but would consider a purchase if the right horse comes along. It is important we have a trial period with any new horse to ensure they enjoy working with disabled people.

If you have this horse then please e-mail us or phone - 01786 813338

Thank you
