Recently I had a horse come to stay while her owner was on holiday.
With such a short stay there’s no point trying to put them in with the whole herd but I also don’t want to be forced to keep any horse alone, without a friend.
Happily I have Richie who is the perfect friend for new arrivals. He doesn’t bully anyone and is very good at looking after himself. I can put him straight in with them and know he won’t hurt them and that he will be able to stay out of trouble himself ❤️
Sure enough he soon taught her about track life - I think he enjoyed having a girlfriend! 😅
Neither of them needed too much grass so we soon settled into a routine of haynets at night and a break of horse grasses in the mornings
