Last month, Shores Hey Farm welcomed three charming Shetland ponies into our care: one gelding and two mares. These ponies, initially shy and wary, have found solace in our dedicated Isolation Unit, where they are receiving the attention and love they need to start their new lives.

Our devoted Equine Care Team has been working tirelessly to ensure these ponies feel safe and comfortable. The journey began with essential health treatments and thorough veterinary examinations. Upon arrival, the ponies were treated for lice, ensuring they could settle into their new environment free from discomfort. Our team also conducted comprehensive veterinary checks to address any immediate health concerns, ensuring each pony was in good physical condition.

One crucial aspect of their initial care was attending to their dental health. Just like humans, equines require regular dental care to maintain their overall well-being. Our team ensured that each pony received the necessary dental treatments, setting a solid foundation for their rehabilitation.

Building trust has been at the heart of our efforts. The ponies arrived shy and uncertain, but with patience and consistent care, they are beginning to open up. The gentle hands and kind voices of our Equine Care Team are helping these ponies understand that they are in a safe place where they will be well cared for.

As they take their first steps toward rehabilitation, we are excited to see the progress they will make. Each day, they become more accustomed to their new surroundings and the people who care for them. The road to recovery may be long, but with the unwavering support of our team, these Shetland ponies have a bright future ahead.

At Shores Hey Farm, every rescue story is a testament to the dedication and compassion of our staff and volunteers. We are committed to providing the best possible care for all our equine friends, helping them to heal and thrive in their new homes. Stay tuned for updates on the journey of our delightful Shetland ponies as they continue to flourish under our care.
