Doogle
Meet Doogle
Doogle is looking for a non ridden companion home and really enjoys time with his person. He is a quiet pony but would only be suitable in a home where he could live side by side with other equines, rather than being in the same field. He can be overly protective about his resources when other equines are in his space. If another horse was ridden out, Doogle could be gradually introduced to being left on his own either in a stable with a hay net to munch on or if he is settled, out in his field. He does require restricted grazing so would need a home with this management. If someone was interested in doing a little horse agility with him, this would also be a lovely bonding exercise. Doogle would be best with an adult handler as we do not know his history with children.
Important stuff
Doogle can never be ridden or driven.
All equines in our centres are regularly assessed by a team of experts including a vet, physiotherapist and farrier, and these assessments have found that Doogle is not suitable to be worked.
History
Doogle came in to our care with another gelding as their owner was struggling to care for them.
