Figaro is being rehomed as a non ridden companion. Figaro is generally good to handle but would benefit from someone with experience as he does need reassurance in new situations.

Figaro is generally good to handle but would benefit from someone with experience as he does need reassurance in new situations.

He is good for the vet and stands nicely for the farrier. He would love a home where he will get lots of love and attention, he loves to be groomed and is a gentle boy.

He had a poor start in life, so is not suitable for ridden work. In the paddock, he is good in a herd. He will need his weight monitoring to prevent obesity and laminitis.

Figaro does not cope when totally left alone, so he needs a home where he will have a constant companion, that won’t need to leave him.

Figaro is on a low dose of bute for his mobility so he is being rehomed on our Prime Pastures scheme, where we can contribute towards the cost of this, as he will need regular checks from a vet.

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.
