Friday saw us have to say an extremely sad farewell to one of the most amazing horses we had the pleasure to care for. ![]()
Scott joined our family many moons ago as a quirky fella to say the least, and one that had a sketchy past filled with more questions than answers.![]()
After years of work building a special bond, this horse proved to have the heart of a lion and a gentle kind soul providing us with countless hours of joy and happiness and a true partner when hitched to a cart. He would drive for hours, head held high and gave it his all. ![]()
He forever kept his quirks, which made him a unique soul and all the more loveable, a favourite being his curly nostril, that always told you he wasnโt impressed! ![]()
He retired with us, reaching a grand old age for a horse of his size and lived many happy years out with the herd, but unfortunately, developed a partial paralysis in his oesophagus which meant he had to eat only fresh grass and a sloppy feed- this proved to much for him to fully recover and after a turn for the worse, he kindly and respectfully crossed the rainbow bridge. ![]()
He will forever hold a special place in our hearts here at hay farm and will be deeply missed by all those that cared for him. ![]()
Sleep well Scottie Boy, know you were always loved deeply ๐

NO RIDES AGAIN TODAY![]()
Again the mercury is soaring and the horses are sweating just coming in for their breakfast, bless them. Therefore there will be NO rides again today, as stated in a previous post the horses welfare is paramount to us, and they wonโt be asked to work for entertainment in extreme heat. ![]()
Love and thanks to all our wonderful supporters who understand this and also sent so many messages of support to our decision yesterday- youโre a wonderful lot and we appreciate it whole heartedly ![]()
