For
those who have suitable premises and experience 'The Retreat Horse Rescue'
can arrange the loan of a horse or pony on a re-homing basis. Having a horse

lightly.

thoroughly inspects the proposed
receiving premises and there is a legally binding agreement to be signed between
the prospective 'borrower' and 'The Retreat Horse Rescue' covering all
aspects of how and where the loaned animal will be cared for.

Pony Care
Ponies
like horses
eat grains and hay and grass
and
especially enjoy a carrot or a sugar cube for a treat when they’ve been very
good! Ponies need plenty of fresh water and a clean
dry place to sleep at
night
and protection from the weather. Some ponies prefer standing outside
rather than being in a stall or a shed
but it’s important that shelter be
available for them if they need to get out of the cold wind in the winter or the
hot sun in the summer.
HEALTH CARE:
Ponies
like all horses
need regular health care. They need
certain vaccinations every year to protect them against diseases like Eastern
Equine Encephalomyelitis (you can call it "EEE")
rabies
and respiratory
diseases. They also need to be given medicine about every 8 weeks to control
internal parasites
such as worms. There are even dentists and chiropractors for
horses and ponies. Hoof care is very important. A farrier should clip and shape
a pony’s hooves every 8 to 12 weeks
depending on how much it is ridden and how
quickly its hooves grow. Cleaning a pony’s hooves to get rid of mud
manure
and
any stones or sharp objects should be a regular part of daily grooming.
