Meet Valerie (Phoebe)

Valerie (Phoebe) is ready to rehome as a non ridden companion. She was returned late last year through no fault of her own and is now looking for her new home. Phoebe is a lovely mare, who is good to catch, handle, groom and for the vet and farrier. She gets on well with others, and quite prefers the quieter life, so tends to keep away from any trouble. She is currently living out with a rug and shelter within a group of mares, but will come into a stable as part of a routine. She doesn't like being left on her own, so will require a home where she will have the company of another equine at all times. If you can offer Phoebe a home, please apply online.

Important stuff

Valerie (Phoebe) 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 Valerie (Phoebe) is not suitable to be worked.

History

Phoebe came into Penny Farm after she was abandoned. She was underweight and in foal. She had a healthy filly foal in 2024.
