Meet Ralph

Ralph is ready to rehome as a non ridden companion. He is an incredibly friendly, lovely natured pony who loves a fuss and pamper and enjoys greeting all the visitors to the farm. Ralph would love to find a home where he will be given lots of attention as he will stand for hours to be groomed. He gets on very well with others, and is currently living out in a bald field, with shelter, with a group of geldings. Ralph unfortunately didn't withstand ridden work due to mild arthritis in his hocks which requires no ongoing medication, but there is no reason why Ralph couldn't be taken out for inhand walks and do some inhand agility. He has had laminitis in the past so it is important that he has his grazing restricted and weight managed all year round. He is good for the vet & farrier and to handle. If you can offer Ralph a home, please apply online.
Important stuff
Ralph 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 Ralph is not suitable to be worked.
History
Ralph was born at Penny Farm on 22/03/2013, his mother Tiggy was part of a welfare case. Tiggy has been rehomed as a lovely Pleasure Competition pony.
