A story about one of our own… Digger!

Skellorn Master Gem is known to all of us at Birtles as Digger, a wonderfully cheeky, intelligent pony that many clients at Birtles have learnt to ride on. Can you believe he’s been with us since 2002?

He’s first to have his story told to everyone who loves all things Birtles— he’s our oldest, our cheekiest and one of the cutest! He’s a testament to how the horses are kept here, with a real focus on the freedoms. He can turn it down a gear for the beginners and step it up to a true speedster with some of the girls who love riding him! And then when Sally gets on him- he could put some of the top dressage horses to shame! He taught Fran how to ride way back in 2008/9 on the lunge too- he’s done it all! He taught us all the importance of saddle fit and got us exploring treeless saddles.

Digger had a real problem with his shoulders and withers- nothing seemed to be working until Sally discovered treeless saddles and tried them with Digger. That paired with her healing has brought him on in leaps and bounds, he truly could not be happier!

Digger is one of the core members of Birtles and always will be- make sure you say hello to him the next time you’re here!

🎉Party Time!🎉 Yesterday afternoon saw us at Birtles celebrating a little cowgirl’s birthday! Outfitted in the best pink gear - herself and her friends all took part in barrel racing, a hobby horse course and even got to see some of Skye’s party tricks! Then they all got to have their birthday cake and food in our big shed that was decorated for her Western theme! Safe to say it was a lovely party and from all of us at Birtles - Happy Birthday!
