SHRT was established in the 1960s and is the largest equine
Sanctuary in the South. It currently runs a rescue programme for equines that
have suffered neglect, mistreatment or are simply unwanted. We are currently
looking after 211 horses, ponies and donkeys.
We believe every horse, pony and donkey has the right to be
part of a loving family where it will be cared for and loved to the end of its
natural life. Although no animal once rescued is ever sold, where possible we
rehabilitate the animals and, when fully recovered, we "loan" them out to homes
which can provide such an environment. All loan homes are rigorously checked and
the loaned animal is visited from time to time to check on its well-being. If
the loan home is no longer able to look after the animal, for whatever reason,
it has to be returned to SHRT.

How to Buy a Pony
They're cute and adorable and can make the perfect gift for a child. But
beware; ponies require just as much care and hard work as full-grown horses.
1. Go to horse auctions, visit local horse barns, read a book on how to buy a
pony, or visit on a few horse-related Web sites. Become familiar with ponies
before you pull out your wallet.
2. Get some expert advice before making a purchase. It is difficult to select
a sound pony with a good temperament unless you have a great deal of experience
with ponies.
3. Pay special attention to the personality of the pony you're considering
buying, especially if a child will be riding her. If a pony is nippy, flattens
her ears when touched, or bucks up her hind end when you walk behind her, it's
best to bypass that animal.
4. Examine the pony for cracked or deformed hooves, a runny nose or eyes, or
a lethargic demeanour.
5. Ask a horse veterinarian to examine the pony you've chosen. This is the
best way to ensure you are buying a healthy pony.
