Rosie Pony

12.2hh Dartmoor. 20+ years old.

Rosie came to us with 3 other Dartmoor ponies as part of a neglect case on Dartmoor.  The elderly farmer had passed away and a number of ponies were left in a field.  The four mares were all older and struggling against the younger fitter ones.

One of the mares (Heggaty) has sadly since passed away and the two others now live with another Charity Hill Pony Resources (Tina and Midnight).

Rosie Pony joined our pony herd and she has fitted in really well, she loves Chance and follows him around everywhere.

We are still not able to handle Rosie but she has hard standing to help trim her feet and wormer in her food.  Rosie has soaked food in the winter to help keep weight on her and she also has shelter year-round as she doesn’t like the rain.

Rosie is a very gentle and quiet pony who has lived most of her life on Dartmoor, we are sure she will have had a number of foals.
