Dolly is a confident pony, who is generally good to handle once she has got to know you and you understand the way she is happy for things to be done.

Dolly is being rehomed as a companion equine.

Dolly is a confident pony, who is generally good to handle once she has got to know you and you understand the way she is happy for things to be done. She needs time to get to know her handlers and does not like to be over fussed. Dolly is good with vet and farrier. She would benefit from a one to one home with an adult handler.

Dolly mixes well in a herd and settles well with both mares and geldings. She has been good to leave in a stable by herself whilst her friends are exercised. She doesn’t respect electric fencing, so will need a home where this will not be needed to be used.

She will need her grazing to be managed especially at certain times of the year to avoid obesity and Laminitis. She enjoys going for walks and other forms of enrichment.

Become a Sanctuary at Home Carer

To help you become a Sanctuary at Home Carer, we have a dedicated team managing our scheme and their job is to help find the right equine for you and then support you throughout your rehoming experience.

Our Pathways

We have three rehoming pathways within our Sanctuary at Home scheme. These are:

Prime Pastures

This scheme enables us to rehome horses and ponies with long-term medical conditions that are manageable. You'll be required to help support their condition with regular monitoring and we contribute towards the costs of their veterinary treatments.

Foster

Working alongside us to socialise and train young or rideable horses for future work in our education programmes. You'll help provide a home setting for these horses to mature before returning to the Sanctuary for further assessment. We work closely with you to keep up to date records of their training, achievements, milestones, setbacks and all aspects of their care.

Standard

Means you help provide a sanctuary at home for as many years as you can for a horse or pony from our charity on a loan basis.
