Bobbie arrived into our care as part of the Dover 26 group. He was a nervous, unhandled youngster who desperately needed some help and TLC from our team of specialists and our grooms.
Now, more than a year on, Bobbie is ‘living the dream’.
He was rehomed by Kiri, who said: “He is an absolute darling, and has certainly settled right into life alongside his companion Marley. He loves a morning play and run around in the field and never fails to put a smile on my face. Marley has been so much happier since Bob arrived, they definitely think they are brothers.“
If you feel inspired to rehome a horse after hearing Bobbie’s story, please visit our rehoming pages where you can see all of our horses and ponies who are ready to find a loving new home.
