Nanette…quite simply amazing!

Posted by on Apr 27, 2010 in Association News, Donkeys, Hoofcare, Rescues | 4 comments
We thought Nanette deserved a post all of her own as the transformation in her from the neglected little donkey we rescued in June 2008, is nothing short of inspirational! Those of you who remember Nanette will also remember the dreadful state her feet were in, they had been neglected for many years. After x-rays were taken of her feet to assess whether she has any pedal bone rotation, the...

Lily & Marcy leave for their new home….

Posted by on Jan 25, 2010 in Association News, Rescues, Welfare | 0 comments
Yesterday we bid farewell to our 2 beautiful Trotter mares as they headed off to their new home in the Dordogne. Lee and Eunice have become the girls new Guardians and we are sure they are going to be treated like princesses with them! Lily & Marcy came to us at the beginning of December with terribly neglected feet – you can see what they looked like here. Hoof neglect is such a major...

The horses, 2 lovely French Trotter mares, had received very little care for many years. The evidence of this was shockingly revealed to us when a representative for ERF initially went to visit the horses last Monday. She found the mares wading...

For the past year or so we have been pushing the authorities to act in a case of neglect to 4 Shetland ponies feet in the Charente. Their feet had been grossly neglected for years making it extremely difficult for them to walk about. Strangely though, they were otherwise reasonably cared for with ample hay and shelter provided. We are very pleased to report that the ponies feet have now been...

Welfare case update-overgrown hooves

Posted by on Jan 30, 2009 in Association News, Hoofcare, Horses, Welfare | 0 comments
Last September we had a report of a pony having extremely overgrown hooves. The pony’s condition apart from the hooves was very good. After contacting the local Maire of the commune, we found out who owned the pony and approached the owner to see if we could help. Not all owners are approachable, but in this case we were able to offer some advice and contact details of a local farrier...
