Meet Romana

Romana was completely unhandled on arrival at Hall Farm and it understandably took her some time to really open up to us. Now we have gained her trust her superb little character is really shining through. Romana is an enchanting, curious little filly who loves fuss and attention. Although Romana may take a little time to fully trust new people, a few treats and a cuddle go a long way and will soon win her over. Romana has become a lovely relaxed filly and is happy to takes things in her stride. Romana gets on well with other ponies and has easily slotted into place within her herd in the field. Although Romana is currently looking for a home as a companion, she could possibly be backed as a lead rein pony in the future, if her rehomer wished to do so. She would be suitable for a small child only with a maximum rider weight limit of approximately 4 stone. We are equally happy for her to remain purely as a non-ridden companion.
Important stuff
This horse is based at Hall Farm, where we’ve been managing a strangles outbreak in some of our horses. They have been screened using guttural pouch lavage (the gold standard test), completed a full course of strangles vaccinations, and spent time in quarantine in a green zone paddock. They are now available for rehoming as part of our phased return to normal activities.
Romana could be worked in the future.
History
Romana came into our care as part of a herd of 13 neglected horses, known as the 'Harefield Horses', who were rescued by World Horse Welfare with the help of local authorities and other welfare charities. You can find out more about their story through the video lower down this page.
