Our vet, Hayley, was the equine vet on duty for sherbornecastlecountryfair today, along with her usual canine sidekicks, Elsie and Thelma. Despite the slightly inclement weather, it was another fabulous event with lots of beautifully turned out heavy horses, native ponies and miniature shetlands just to name a few!
