This age of disposable things should not apply to animals. If anyone can take a horse, or knows someone who can, please consider rehoming a horse from World Horse Welfare.

Louis
REHOMERS MUST BE AWARE SHETLANDS GAIN WEIGHT EASILY AND THIS MUST BE STRICTLY CONTROLLED TO AVOID THE RISK OF LAMINITIS. Louis is a gentle little pony with a very kind and sweet nature. He socialises well with all his companions but likes to avoid trouble and keeps well away from any boisterous behaviour. Louis is a friendly pony once he has overcome his shyness with unfamiliar people. He makes a fantastic non-ridden companion as he enjoys the company of others but he is equally happy to be left on his own for short periods of time. Louis is looking for a calm, relaxed home where he can lead a quiet, serene life.
Temperament
Louis is a very friendly Shetland and he is easy to handle in every way. He is sometimes timid to catch but never turns his nose up at some food!
History
Louis was originally gifted to World Horse Welfare as a legacy. He has been out on loan for nearly 3 years and was reluctantly returned following a change in circumstances of his rehomer.
Louis is located at Hall Farm
