Meet Phoebe

Phoebe is a sensitive mare who will require a sympathetic and experienced handler to give her the confidence she needs. She is generally well mannered and good to handle but can get strong when she is feeling stressed or upset. Phoebe is happier living out as this is what she has always been used to. We do, however, feel that she may be able to be stabled in time if this is introduced to her gradually and with a companion close by. Phoebe is a genuine mare with a lot to give. Phoebe needs a home with somebody who is prepared to spend the time bonding with her and giving her the chance she so deserves. In return we believe she will become a loving, more confident mare.

Important stuff

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 Phoebe is not suitable to be worked.

History

Phoebe came into our care when her owner approached us for help. He had limited horse experience and he was struggling to give her the care she required.
